GWAAAAAARG! IM GOING INSANE !

PLEASE SAY THERE IS A MOD TO SILENCE THE "CUNNINGTOWER OF DEATH"

Sailor Steve · 06-26-07, 07:11 PM

I didn't know it was that smart; but then I use the "conning" tower to steer the ship, not plot to take over the world.:rotfl:

Kaleu, are you saying it's not just the /3 tower that's killing your men?? I thought you might have started a new career to try out alternative towers for the IXD2.

Since I'd like to go to Penang someday, please share what you've learned so far -- what to avoid, specifically. Vielen Dank!

sailing in mu U-124 IXB

...
had the problem with all 3 type's of cunningtowers

.
and NO! you cant be on time to stop it.
once a bullet (DG,Flak,machine gun,etc) hits yer tower it starts

@ Reece: i want to get rid of this problem

i want to sail surfaced trough the channal (later on trough gibraltar)
but its just unfair

sorry man, but I have no idea what you problem is. Could you specify?

What's a cunningtower? Sounds like something one would do with his/her girlfriend, not with a u-boat.

I think he is referring to this bug http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=108189 . Not sure if anyone has been looking at ways to fix this but it is a game killer if it happens to you.

To put an end to this joke:

cunningtower = conning tower

[A conning tower is a raised platform on a ship or submarine, often armored, from which an officer can con the vessel; i.e., give directions to the helmsman. It is usually located as high on the ship as practical, to give the conning team good visibility.] Wikipedia

Hello kaleuns:
I had exactly the same problem... everybody was dying in the conning tower. When I sent the repairs team there, the only the only slots where crew don't get killed are 1st and the 2nd at the right the officer's slot. Those 2 slots seem to be bug-free and keep the repair guys there until you get the report that there is no damage to repair. Just in case you want to try it.

referencing the other tower of death thread
This mentions a VIIC/3 tower on a IX.

08-26-07, 07:24 PM

Yes,So have I had the problem,but it never got repaired because either they got wounded or dead immediatly,maybe it was squished lol.

Cezbor · 08-27-07, 01:22 AM

This bug is very .......

.It happened to mee too many times

Turm IX/3 type IXC

CapZap1970 · 08-27-07, 03:50 PM

I think this

problem is being solved by the GWX Team and the fix will be included in 1.04, if I am not mistaken.

If this is the case, than patience is a good alternative, I think.

You can always switch boats to a VIIC or even a IIB right? :rotfl:
