2024.1 Patch 17

Dear captains,

There is a new patch ready for version 2024.1.

[h3]Localization:[/h3]
- Ukrainian localization update by vovanvoks.
- Russian localization update by Hard.
- German localization update by Ruby.

[h3]Graphics:[/h3]
- Fix: Underwater effect was temporarily disabled when zooming in the camera from the orbit view to the section view, if camera was previously placed in a specific position.

[h3]Crew:[/h3]
- Work at the navigator's station in publicly known areas now has a decreased priority instead of having zero priority. This makes it possible to force navigator to work on this station at all times for a fuel consumption modifier.
- Fix: "Focus" skill description was improved and is different when playing with disabled periscope stabilization.
- Fix: Many fixes and improvements to character voices played when using a deck gun.

[h3]UI:[/h3]
- When a character screen is opened for an officer who has a pending level up with unspent skill points, the screen automatically opens up on the skills tab.

[h3]Technical:[/h3]
- Fix (regression of Patch 15): The game was crashing after sinking an aircraft carrier.
- Fix: Another error that could sometimes make a saved game state unloadable.

[h3]General:[/h3]
- Notifications no longer play their associated sound effects during return to port cutscenes.
- Fix: North Labrador weather station campaign objective banner was displayed at a wrong position on the map after loading any save file.
- Fix: If a merchant ship's evacuation was ordered during an inspection, the ship's captain was later missing on the lifeboats.

Yours,
DWS
