No problem happy it helped!

haha yep...was only one way to see what would happen!

With engage troops are supposed to move more orderly towards the enemy by staying in formation and charge is just an outright chaotic advance.

When you bring up the wheel menu there should be a Platforms option right above the Buildings one. Once you go to that different types of bridges can be unlocked and built.

That's weird...I just checked and I was able to quickly test start a new game of Play As Skipper so for me at least it's still in the game.

@@RoboCharged I see it now must of been a mod interfering it's in perspective.

No problem it's so cool you guys saw this! Keep up the great work!

@@RoboCharged Always a great joy of ours to see fellows enjoying our work. Happy holidays!

@@anvilgamestudios You too!

You're game deserves it and also deserves more recognition. i just hope that you tell whoever is in charge of development , if they can add playable tanks in WW1 Scenario. it would be q blast.

Thanks yeah that's a good work around!

Thanks! I ended up using this concept in my village almost everywhere after, those 3 initial ideas in the video just spawned so many more as I went!

Thanks I'm glad you liked those vids! I actually started to delve into crew management briefly with the intent on making a video. But I'm not really qualified to advise anything new or different since it's generally been an afterthought for me so far. There's already some good guides out there and to me I think as long as people can find a base that works personal preference tweaks can be made from there. I don't do anything special just obviously go for the 2nd radio man asap and don't allow any crew on the observation periscope. Then I copied a vid to just make sure nobody is ever missing from a station or overly tired with balanced shifts etc. I'm sure it becomes more important later in the game, but I plan on doing a playthrough with mods that expand the crew and adjust max dive times etc so haven't wanted to spend to much time on analyzing it all just yet. I haven't really went past the first year or so of the game honestly because I keep starting over to up the difficulty and capture footage for beginner guides.. And I tried the Play As Skipper Mode and that kind of ruined the game for me! I prefer it so much I want to wait for it to be finished so I can playthrough it all like that now haha. Mods have been my next focus lately. I've been trying out all the full release friendly ones available so far to compile a list and looking to make my next video about that right now.

@ Ah that does make plenty of sense, I started just having a 6 on 6 off shift with 2h dive and 2h no dive myself but was wondering about stuff that’s optimal, I funnily enough do have crew on the periscope but am going to remove it next time I play, thank you for the answer and the guides, I am actually starting to intercept a lot more ships! Funnily enough I intercepted a warship and had to dive to 180m because the entire convoy was warships, I did get the survive 100 depth charge achievement tho lol

@@xathylos No problem It's great that you found something from it to be useful! I highly recommend checking out this video th-cam.com/video/1GDPgfNU_m0/w-d-xo.html by ramjb for optimal crew set up and then tweaking it from there as you go through the game or develop personal preferences and strategies. He is a much more avid and in-depth knowledgeable subsim/naval warfare gamer than I. I just copied his basic setup for myself and then just made very minor tweaks as I saw fit here and there for my playthroughs so far. I think he even mentions the reason for no crew on observation periscope...they can randomly pop it up and give you away and there's nothing to gain from it. Just a pure negative and avoidable occurrence. He's spent the time trying and optimizing things well enough for anyone to get a great base to work off of and adjust as they see fit.. I don't think he covers dive schedules if I remember right but that is likely something that will need to evolve as you play through your campaign. Late game I hear things get pretty intense and you'll likely want to only surface after dark when possible. Early game it's just a way to avoid having to do manual hydrophone checks as often but the fuel savings and airplane dodging aren't really all that necessary yet and you travel slower. Damn nice one! I haven't got that achievement yet, must of been a close shave! Figures you find a convoy of only warships! Was it in the English channel by chance? *Edit* I guess probably not since I don't know if it even gets that deep there!?

So happy to hear it was able to help!

So you're looking to get your officers to auto calculate a solution for you? Or you can't get them to input your data into the TDC once you've managed one? Sorry just not sure exactly what you're asking.

@RoboCharged I changed uboat, the targeting now works as per your video. All good now, got to sink some boats.....Thx for the good vid and reply.

@@pawelwolski1316 👍

No problem! If I hadn't played so much Warband previously on console before Bannerlord I might of honestly quit out of frustration over that! But I knew there had to be a way and just tried every button there was in custom battle until I found it lol.

@@RoboChargedI restarted twice. Deleted it and redownloaded. Had a rant on Reddit where most people are still asking game mechanic questions. This game does a terrible job of showing what to do or how to do it. This video has saved my enjoyment of the game. I love the mix of total war and CK3.

@@scottsummers167 Ya it's amazing how there's nothing related to battle commands in any menu or tutorial at all. Not even an official online booklet or anything. Console was just an afterthought obviously, but it's a great game regardless like you said with the strategy and warfare mix!

I have! I put out a couple videos shortly after it came out! I love that game, just been waiting for it to be fleshed out some more but will continue to cover it!

@@RoboCharged I saw now, so I was right, I feel you will liket :)))

@@albertpietrosanu2667 No doubt good call! It's a great game to be sure and slowly getting better and better!

Awesome thanks I appreciate it!

Thanks I hope it was useful!

haha no doubt!

I think they are pretty much the same but with one big difference. In First Person mode you can switch back and fourth between controlling the skipper and any of the other officers whenever you wish. Whereas Play As Skipper mode only allows for controlling the skipper himself and that's it.

I'll have to give that a try thanks! So far my limited forays into 100% realism have basically just involved close range attacks that are forgiving enough to roughly eyeball it haha.

@RoboCharged Well, IRL ranges beyond 1,000 yards were generally regarded as somewhat of a "spray and pray" so you aren't really that bad most likely.

Thanks! Yes it really is a pity they didn't include that.

There are actually 2 additional ways to assign sailors to yourself besides using the map view! You can either just left click on a sailor or hold the Tab key and use the little add or subtract sailor buttons on the bottom left of the screen where your name and energy meter are found.

I have just tested this, thank you, so much easier​@@RoboCharged

(very shocked and scared staring at you) I see that you are no stranger to pain........(pours a double whiskey to deal with your statement)

Haha I like it! And maybe even have a crewman bring him a pair of striped PJs!

Nice! Yes I would think that will be addressed eventually. I have seen people mention doing your method as a workaround in the meantime and it does work! One post I came across even recommended setting up a blank officer shift and then assigning whatever task you are doing to that shift, while clearing his schedule so he won't be off duty. I haven't tried that one (not even sure I understand how to) but apparently that keeps him in place as well.

I think the crew should let the skipper always pass since he is higher up in rank. What I dont like in the game is when two crew member meet somewhere, and they just teleport.

@@vesszopontpont6335 That's another good point about crew interaction with the teleporting. I fully agree it'd be nice if they didn't do that as well.

No problem that awesome to hear! It definitely becomes a much different game once you can utilize your troops the way you want!

R1 will couch if you tap it and the equipment switch menu should only come up if you hold it. But you still need to first have a couchable lance equipped and be riding at a fast enough speed before it will work. Look for the little white icon on the bottom right of the screen like in the video to know when you can do it.

@RoboCharged ohhh OK thank you. I cannot tell you how many times I have Uninstalled this game and said "f this the game is ass." Just to re-download it 10 mins later I hate that this game sucks but is fun at the same time lol

I actually didn't know how myself at the time of making this video. But I made a short afterwards that shows how once I found out myself. Basically when you are in the toggle radial menu there is a face enemy command that once selected will then turn into a face direction command. So you need to choose face enemy then reopen the menu and then with the right stick position the flag in the direction you want them to turn and then select face direction. At the end of this short I quickly demonstrate how to wheel or turn your troops if you want to see it done. I hope that helps! th-cam.com/users/shortsg--YcRDNRMc

@RoboCharged you're a lifesaver, cheers! ❤️

No unfortunately mods are only available on PC.

No problem! Thank you I'm happy it was able to help out!

No problem! I hope it helps make finding targets less frustrating for you!

The game is worth more than its sale price.

@@saureco No doubt! Amazing value for such a good game that is a very recent full release.

No problem thanks for watching!
