Ah! Sorry! Unlisting as I dont have my copy of Captain Sonar any more to reupload the images, and don't have TTS installed.

The source for the player boards seems to have broken, unfortunately.

This is a great adaptation! But is there any map other than Alpha one?

Game not working....

A couple of notes to get people playing (cause it wasnt obvious for me)

Reference manual:: https://www.matagot.com/IMG/pdf/SONAR_RULES_EN_lr.pdf

Setup:: One player becomes Game master (player colour black), and then allocate hidden for each of the player
With the hidden zone tool, click on the zone to get rid of the zone, right click on the zone to get the colour/player picker

In Game:: To adjust the thickness of the paintbrush use plus and minus keys (but not the ones on the numpad)
For the radio operator use blocks from the bag, there is no transparent sheet, but you can click and drag to select all blocks placed, and it has a similar role to the transparent sheet.

Thanks!

This game is FANTASTIC !! Great Job

sorry about that. Trying to get you a permanent link right now, but something is screwing up.

I'd like to join the discord server but the link doesn't work.

Hi @The War of 1812,
Can you please repost the discord server? The link you posted on September 5th has expired.

Nice, thanks for sharing this.
Any chance to get the turn-based maps & stations as well?

I believe there is a general TTS discord server. https://discord.gg/zyXUyKH

a discord for players interested in playing would be nice

I would like to play this sometime .

i just playxed the game irl and found this. it looks very good. if someonme likes to give it a try on tts please feel free to contact me

ctrl +c to copy, then you can just ctrl+p to paste new trail cubes after you slide the lead cube up

ahh I see, lol now once I promote them how do they go to creating their own color cubes and I saw how to copy the cubes but how do you paste them back down? Pretty new to TTS sorry! :(

Just looked at the mod. The only image that no longer exists was a picture of a submarine I liked lol.

@Aloki-San : I just promote people so that they can create their own color "lead" cube, and slide that one around while copy-pasting new trail cubes. I don't know how to edit the 3d object to add arrows to it. Sorry!

Okay so the jpg of the sub missing isn't a deal breaker. But hey played the game with my friends had a blast lol, the only thing I have a comment on is maybe giving the captain and the radio operator both blue and red colors only because I got confused on where the enemy sub was currently or where my sub was currently. Maybe connect the dots with arrows pointing in the direction the sub is going idk. Loved the mod tho!

I havent updated in a longgg time. Someone also posted that a jpg didnt exist anymore. If I can find the time this week, I will check out how its faring.

How to do, to play this game in the PC? Thanks

Hey I'm trying to figure out how to play your mod, are you still updating it?

http://maxey.mvps.org/images/photo_galleries/Navy_Submarines.jpg does not exist.

one of the custom tiles will not import

Once you do that, everyone on yellow's team can see yellow's zone.

the side with the yellow captain all have to be on the same "team." IE hearts, spades, etc. Same with the blue team.

Can you provide a quick "how to play this in TTS"? I can't get the zones to show for anyone.

Hey there. There's a problem loading the images. Thanks!

Well, I move the different-colored block every move to represent the "current" location. It doesnt matter the direction of all the old cubes, because it only matters that you cannot travel to that location again til you surface.

Ok... My game can't work :O Failed to connect to Maxey.mups any idea ? Site Down ?

Ya, that helps for finding the start but if you have say a 3x3 square it gets hard to tell how they got to where they are, or even which was the last block placed. Here is a link to 2 examples since im sure my explanation does no justice.
Example Navigation [s29.postimg.org]
and of course I know those movements are imposible on the second set, but I find the top one much easier to follow by having the tails point to where it came from.

Thanks. Yeah I noticed H12 a while ago, and I originally had planned to put snap points on all the alternate maps. I have been lazy and also havent played TTS in a long time though. I'll get to at LEAST the h12 issue tonight because it will only take a second.

As the captain, I usually just change the color of the "lead" block to distinguish it from the others. I'm sure there is a more elegant solution than that though.

For some reason H12 did not have a snap point on the first mate's Alpha map, and there are no snap points on the follow on maps for either the captain or the first mate. Also, it would help to add snap points along the perimiter of the first mate's map so that they can add a movement block, then realize its out of bounds and adjust, as apose to having to adjust before placing the block, it just keeps the flow a bit better. Lastly, the blocks used to track movement get pretty vague when forming squares...

pt2 - ... I recomend using a blank one for a start point and then painting a dot on the middle of a cube and connecting that dot via a strait line to the top edge, then drop them in an infinate bag. This allows you to rotate the new pieces and have it show where the ship is and the path it took to get there. It really helps to be able to trace everything back to the start. Hope you can add these items, I feel it would make this great mod even better. Regardless, this is a wonderful mod and I commend you for your translation of a difficult game to the TTS medium.

Yeah I could. I still need to message BotMan and fix that texture issue too. Haven't found the time to do it.

Any chances to add turn-by-turn boards?

"Captain Sonar"
by The War of 1812

10/10

I fixed the textures by adding a transparent mask to the background and erasing the empty space, so instead of black empty space, its white or clear

I'm not sure how to fix that. I will try changing them from a deck template to individual images.

@The War of 1812, sometimes the textures do not load for some players and show black for the boards, specifically the Captain and Radio Operator

im interested in any improvements or scripting for this game

It seems you absolutely refuse to actually add me and look at the improvements. So good luck and have fun.

Glad you like it, Lufnar!
@RiceKun. I've added in snappoints now, and I'm trying to keep the surfacing boards difficult enough that it simulates the time it takes in person to pass around the board/draw/initial on it.
Thanks for the tips!

Thanks, i'll probably print this as physical copy and see if my group likes it before buying. I'd have bought it right then and there when i saw the review first time, but last time i bought real time game (space cadets dice duel) it didnt go well with my group so i'm hoping they like this instead...and if they dont...well, its only couple € instead of 50€

Snap points for every map card/ every position. Tokens that fit into positions for dmg/engineer/firstmate. Screens so you can draw on them and move them around as communications officer / use it but not moving it for captain. Fixed the surfacing boards so you can draw on them better. Anything else that needs to be done~?

Sorry about that. Was just a random person I hadn't played with sending me a friend request. I added snap points to the Alpha maps. What else did you change in your version?

So rude @The War of 1812 didn't accept my friend request...
Just wanted to hit you up with some improvements I did quickly today for the mod so we could play it with my group. Feel free to accept the friend request if you'd like to see.

great game

amazing, thanks a lot
