Map contact

[bacchusxxx22]

After watching tons of sh3 videos, am I the only one who plays without.

Makes me feel like a child game with map contact.

To all you supersinkers, try with off.

I too use to play without.
Only thing annoying me is no hydro contacts lines when untucked.
There is a solution to keep hydro lines with no contacts on, but huge work to give all sea folder ships transparent tga with photoshop (around 250 ships for GWX, more than 380 for Ccom!)

But you’re right, it’s an other world without contacts.

And if you;re in a late war career with snorkels, no map contacts mean inevitable death from unseen aircraft or surface ships. What a great way to play...

Excellent idea

Myself? I'd write a script for 010 to do the job.
But not everyone uses the program sadly.
If Modding? I can't even imagine doing without it!

Write the script and run it? All files would be replaced in mere seconds!
