Is 'u boat v4' a mod?

How did you go in stock SH5? Sounds like the (stock) easy-to-make-mistake of not unlocking the scope before firing when using autotargeting?

Auto targeting is a bit counter-intuitive, had me a bit bamboozled for a while.
Here is the solution;

I won't mention the double negative

If you get too close to your target, say 600ft or less, your torpedoes won't blow up and go behind your target, since they will take out the sub too. Its a safety mechanism on your torpedoes.

Sounds Like a great idea and there is no Instant gratfication until the soulution is correct . Yes there are so many methods to Learn ,, SONOR Method, AOB TO RANGE, RAFOB, .. And playing 100% you cannot see the escorts path when they are trying to depth charge the hell out of you .. I highly recomend USING TDW UI MODS , TRAVELLYS MODS There are so many great minds that make SH5 a blown up expereance , I THink I seen my crew really perform under pressure , The AI crew Got this new Kauleun Out of some trouble and saved the boat , Iam New Because I played @ 86% before and now switched too 100% , My cherry is broken and Ill never go back

Good luck
