[REL] External Torp Reload Time

wamphyri · 03-18-10, 07:26 PM

As Requested - External Torpedo Reload Time
Version 0.2 out now!

This simply increases the time it takes to reload a torpedo from external stores. The default had been 6.6 minutes .. I moved it to 100 minutes. I believe that was in line with sh3's transfer times.

Download 0.2

Thanks for this. Very much needed.

I'm wondering though if the numbers actually represent minutes. It is taking longer to load, (about 6-7 minutes compared to 6-7 seconds before) but definitly not 100 minutes. Could it be another mod conficting on mine, or do you actually get 100 minutes on your install?

Actually I hadn't tested it and was going with what the editor said was the unit of measurement for that setting. It clearly isn't minutes like it says and It isn't seconds. I did some testing and some fiddling with the settings and now have it at around 100 minutes. I used a stopwatch with 32x time compression but my math holds up and being off by a few seconds won't bother anyone.. I hope

So grab 0.2 and let me know if all is good like it should be! Thanks for the input reboot, wouldn't have realized this one for some time with the way my campaign is going. I spend more time modding than playing. Only myself to blame for that tho

Well in sh3, at 8X Time compression it took some time(a minute or two) to get fully reloaded....In sh5 at 8X it was pretty much instant, so...

THANK YOU !!!!!!!

Thanks!

Do please let me know if my math is off. I haven't been able to figure out what equation they use. but it seems to be right as far as I can tell.

thanks....this is a good mod for realism

did you use the roll and pitch mod below
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...ght=pitch+roll
b4 you made your changes?....if not
could you make another version with both mods together?

Furia · 03-20-10, 04:17 PM

To make this MOD more real it would be nice to add the feature that while the process to reload using the externally stored torpedos, the sub could not dive, or that at least not mak an inmediate dive since this was one of the main dangers during such operations.
Just extending the reload time does not make it much of a challenge if you can crash dive any minute.

Could this be implemented?

You can use them together, there's no need for me to make a versions with that mod in it.
