Baron Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I was just playing a game and my Soviet sub avoided an attack from the German Baltic fleet and went under the icecap. Then it continued to damage the convoy line to Germany. 1) Is this by design or a bug? On a aside note I love this sub! It has inflicted several sp losses on the Germans and still is kicking! I'm sure my opponent isn't as happy with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaMonkey Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 You know Baron, I kind of like the way subs operate too(compared to the SC1 days), although I would like to see them have a greater AP allocation. Be careful cause they're easily trapped in confined waters by the old "corral" technique, best left to the open water deployments. One of these days we're going to get that "pass through" feature for all naval units and with the enhanced APs we'll pretty much have a nicely simulated naval conflict.

Hubert Cater Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Baron, Just to clarify, did the Soviet sub then get stuck under the ice cap? If so then this is agreeably an undesirable side effect of the dive feature where I would then have to make sure it cannot dive under the ice.

Baron Posted January 30, 2010 Author Share Posted January 30, 2010 Hubert, That is affirmative it did dive under the ice, do you need me to send a turn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Cater Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 No that is Ok, I should be able to correct this behaviour, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuniworth Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Did you spot Jimmy Hoffa somewhere under the ice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaMonkey Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Seems likes a justifiable tactic to me Hubert. What self-respecting Uboat captain wouldn't duck into an ice flow when presented with extenuating circumstances? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Cater Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Hehe... true but I think the problem is if the sub then gets stuck there. Another issue is if it gets stuck under permanent ice as some maps might have those. I'll have to take a closer look when there is more time to apply the appropriate solution.
