BTW Neal(or anyone else that might know), just what does the red or green submarine silhouette signify? I've been meaning to ask this since the first screenshot I had seen months ago. |

All I can say.
Holy. Freaking. Crap.
SH3 is going to bring me back full swing into naval simulations. |

Great read and gives one great hope.
I do hope that the higher realisms will however get rid of the "hull %"
How easy is the manual TDC? You did get quite close from 3000m. It looks great and from my limited knowledge appears to simulate the real workings of doing a TDC solution. |

Remember to follow the less obvious links within the paragraphs and the TDC on page 3. I say this as the first time I read it I missed them!
Only a minimum of four months to go... |

Thats the "stealth meter" :doh: so if its red you make to much noise than you got yellow and the best option is if you have it green than you are silent. |

Hi,
I'm just wondering if the outer torpedo tube doors have to be opened manually with a seperate command, rather than the whole process just reduced to a single 'Fire' button. It would be really great if it was a seperate command, of course this would introduce the question of equalising and flooding the tubes as well. I've got a feeling though that this may be one area of the sim that is dumbed down.
Four months is far far too long to wait. |
