More precise dives

1916 · 08-24-05, 03:44 PM

Is there a way to set bow and aft diveplanes in the sim? I was just thinking that that would be cool instead of having preset dive configurations.

P.S. Sunk a 10K ton freighter in the Isle w/o any mods, ended up with 27,384 tons sunk in one patrol, just a personal best for me.

I think that you can`t control the dive planes.

It was one of the zillion features that was supposed to be in sh-3 but was left out.

hahahah... be glad that you don't have it (just kidding, of course)

check this out and you'll get a feel for how difficult it might be keeping periscope depth if you indeed had control of the planes...

It would add another dimension to the game.
