Dear skippers,

We are back with a roadmap for the year 2022! Please have a look at it to get a general idea where UBOAT is heading and what to expect soon.

We plan to leave the Early Access this year after two more updates. Initially, we wanted to make a one large update, but this way you will have a possibility to enjoy fresh content without a long break along the way.



Starting with this year, we are also going to change the naming convention for the future updates. We will now categorize them by the year they were released in.

That means that the next updates will be named 2022.1 and 2022.2 instead of B132 and B133. We feel that this is going to be much more clear and easier to memorize as compared to a one long sequence.



The next update still needs some love, but we are working hard to complete is as soon as possible. We hope that you will enjoy it!

Yours,
DWS

Dear skippers,

We prepared the first hotfix for Christmas update B131. It fixes a few compatibility issues with old game states as well as brings some general improvements. There is also a bunch of localisation updates from the community members.

This update doesn't affect saved game states in any way.

[h2]Changelog[/h2]
[h3]Localisation:[/h3]
- German localisation update by Ruby.
- Spanish localisation update by Tordo.

- Japanese localisation update by Surumeika1987, Largo, [JP]AWPsan, 泥遊戯.

[h3]Graphics:[/h3]
- Fix: Splash effect on the conning tower during a dive wasn't appearing after loading an old game state (pre B131).
- Regression fix: Particle effects, like funnel smoke, were disappearing at closer than usual distance.

[h3]World simulation:[/h3]
- Fix: More intense warship and aircraft patrols on English Channel weren't applied to old game states (pre B131).

[h3]Crew:[/h3]

[h3]User interface:[/h3]
- Fix: Recognition manual was displayed out of the screen bounds on combinations of certain UI scales and screen resolutions.

[h3]Modding:[/h3]
- Defined spawners from mods are now loaded into ongoing playthroughs. A fresh start is no longer needed for that.
