No worries.

Just tried this and its a dream. Should be in base game. People were asking dev for it since 1.0

@DarkRaven when you have time and if you are interested, it would be really cool to have a toggleable commanders window for when using "no spoliers" and "no lock on" mods so that when you want you can speak to the tdc operator from periscope view like in base game.
I like turning the dials by myself but sometimes i think it'd be cool to do it verbally.
anyway, cheers and looking forward to your future mods

@tequilatibbs Unfortunately, I have several projects already queued up to work on, so I can't commit to another.

awesome!, cant wait to try this in the future when i pick the game up again.

For those wondering i am assuming this is a hotkey for blue light (follow / dont follow) meaning you can switch blue light on or off with a hotkey whilst at periscope view: meaning you dont have to go the tdc screen to do it (assuming you are playing "unlocked").
I could be wrong as I havent actually tried it and easily misunderstand things.

@DarkRaven as you are capable of doing wondrous things, could you look into making HD/DF legitimately terrifying?
About a year or so ago I tried to mess with the datasheet to improve it but without effect.
HF/DF is considered in retrospect to be a bigger problem for uboats than RADAR, but in game you can fire off messages within visual range of warships and only say 1 in 10 times the escort comes towards you.

sorry for the hijack and thanks again!

@Nymbat The Eternal I am unable to clarify what the mod does, past what's in the description. As for what drove it's creation: someone said it would be nice if the blauschalter had a hotkey and I thought it would be interesting to see if I could do it.

@Nymbat The Eternal I think its a hot key to fire so you dont have to be on a screen that has a fire button

@DarkRaven I believe that houghs wants a more detailed description of what this mod does and an explanation as to what drove it's creation.

@houghs "In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move."

Can you be more specific on what you want explained?

@Drexack I've got it prototype'd out. I'll try to pull together a mod for it tomorrow, if I don't find some bugs.

@Drexack Thanks! I'll have to check to make sure on the torpedo launch. Off-hand it should be possible, but no promises.

Oh wow, that's pretty neat!
Do you think it would be possible to do something similar for the torpedo launch?
I tried it briefly, but it only worked in scenes from which you can fire the torpedo with the click of a button.
