Breaking the fortress - Wolves of steel 1.03

mirage3000 · 06-28-15, 10:49 AM

Hi!

I've searched the forum with this issue and even though I found that people had some missunderstanding arround finishing this mission, I never figured it out from their posts if everything is all right with whats happening to me.

I've started the campaing and finished Danzing Bay the first day - I've sunk a destroyer, minesweeper and a mearchant and since I've fulfilled primary and secondary objectives I've decided to go to Britain coastal waters for more exiting missions. I've chosen Breaking the fortress and as soon I started the mission I saw on nav map arround Scapa flow that I only have X mark with blank sheet of paper when I click on it. It doesn't say that I have primary nor secondary objectives. When I exit the game, in the overview it said that I already somehow finished the mission... I'm not sure what will happen when I arrive at Scapa flow since now I'm currently half way on the route there but for now it just seems like I don't have mission objectives. I'm using Wolves of steel 1.03 mega mod.

Can someone explain if I did something wrong?

P.S. Wolves of steel is correctly installed, I'm sure of it and when I started the campaign I saved it in the bunker and reload it from the main menu - I'm just not sure if I have to repeat this for each single mission?

Thanks!

Everithing is ok, just go there and try to sink something big...

This crazy PT boat decided to catch on fire in Scapa for no reason and whizzed around for about 10 hours before it sank.

Can different save/load situation cause weird behaviour of the OPFOR ships? I had situation with 4 destroyers circling around me, pinging me, etc. and just out of frustration I blowed all ballast and emerged in the circle made out of these destroyers and 2 PT boats and they didn't take a shot at me. They didn't even aim at me. The only thing is that I did save and load couple of times during their approach and most probably while they were above me. Even when I started shooting at them with torpedoes and deck gun, nothing happened. I've sunk them all. I must say that everything before and after that felt OK, with standard aggressive behaviour of the OPFOR.

This happened during the beginning of eastern coastline campaign (right after breaking the fortress in which I've sunk 2 ships worth 18.000 tons together - no capital ship in the harbour at that night).

It's one of the oldest and the most annoying AI problems in SH5. Harbor protection tends to get stuck and that can ruin all the fun and exciting. This is one of the reasons why I always advise people not to do harbor raids in SH5.
It's just not realistic with known AI limitations plus , player presence near enemy harbors will prevent any random convoy/units activation so that can potentially create more problems.

How's game stability seem to you? Any random crashes?
