Greetings,
Alligator

Schade das Du keine Zeit mehr hast, Deine Mods sind für mich mit die Besten die es gibt und Dein schneller Support ( Aktualisierung usw.) waren immer einmalig. Vielleicht findest Du ja irgendwann wieder etwas Zeit für UBoat . Ich sage Danke schön und wünsche Dir alles Gute!

Danke für deine Arbeit.. alles Gute..👍

That's okay. Anyway, thanks a lot for the work you did with this mod. We had a lot of fun with it.
Good luck to you for the future

Dear U-boat Captain's,

I would like to apologize for my long absence. Regarding private reasons, it is currently not possible for me to continue my mods due to time constraints. I've always enjoyed it and I'll miss it! I hope for your understanding....

But there is a very good solution which you can continue playing the mods ;)
I am happy to inform you that "sq_paradox" will continue the MOD "Device Energy Management" and "Device Maintenance". Please support him in his work ;)
There will be more news soon when and how the MOD's will be released.

I would like to thank you all for the good cooperation and wish you "good hunting".

Greetings,
Alligator

i miss this mod a lot. please update for latest version :)

I hope this gets updated, for me this was a must have mod. No word on any updates though.

Please update <3

I hope. This mod is a must-have

hello! is going to be updated to 2024.1??

pls update

Seems it’s no longer work in Beta.. I hope devs will add this fantastic mod to the main game

i pray that this will get into 1.0 in one way or another

It's good, I found the solution for the "noise repair" problem.
At the same time I was using a mod called “Quiet mode” and it was a game breaker. Since I deleted it I have no more problems. It no longer says "noise repair" even after several repairs in the same mission and without having to reload the save. The crew is also more responsive than before.
I hope I helped other people.
Good hunt !

I usually switch to electric engines while the diesel ones are undergoing maintenance to keep moving.

Is it correct that during diesel engine maintenance, the submarine will not be able to move for about 4 to 5 minutes because the engine is stopped? That's how it is for me.

If so, this can be very dangerous in later years of the war (e.g. due to aircraft).

It would be better if the submarine could at least continue to travel at short speeds during maintenance rather than being completely stopped.

I too also have the same issues with repair noise and not being able to command my mechanics/officers.

Hello, thank you very much for this mod.

I'm making this post because I'm facing a rather annoying problem. Indeed, at the time of each repair, it says "repair noise" in the detection icon on the right of the screen.

The problem is that after each repair, this repair noise remains and emits noise. If several devices need to be repaired, the repair noises will accumulate and generate more and more noise.

I found myself at 100Db in silent mode at the bottom of the water without the mechanics repairing anything :D The only solution I found was to save and load this same save so that it disappears. However, on the next repair, it comes back and it still remains and I have to save/load again to correct the problem.

I cleared the cache, temp and datasheet but nothing changes. It's very frustrating because it breaks the rhythm and wastes time. Is there an alternative solution?

Click the lightswitch to find heating

Can not find heating so all my sailors die all the time... i spend 20+ minutes searching, did not find a thing...

The premise of this mod is great. Unfortunately, it frequently bugs out when you attempt to assign any officer to repair an item and they just get 'stuck'. Until you reassign them to another task using the officer management panel specifically, they will not repair the item nor can you click on anything while controlling that officer. They will not complete a repair nor can it be completed at all.

Is it compatible with the new version 2022.1 Patch 21?

I translated Device Maintenance to Japanese.
The added column are colored as Light Blue.

Please add localization for my fellow sailors!

I recently encountered an issue while playing with this mod enabled after 2022.1 patch 18. My deck gun became damaged in a storm and shortly after my gyro compass suffered a random defect. None of my mechanic type officers would carry out the repair command on either piece of equipment. they would show the icon for repair but not move to the area and do the repair or would only flash the icon and go back to idle. My leader type officers however did do the repair as ordered (not sure if they are supposed to be able to do that).

✔️This mod works on 2022.1 Patch X

fixed custom actions was disabled

is it working at all? i got info so bilge pump need maintenance ,but i have icons just for info and turn pump out /on no icon for maintenance....

Hello, I have translated the mod into Spanish. If you want you can add me to Steam

is this mod updated?

This is just plain fucking annoying

I can't run maintenance upfront, only when the engine basically damaged.
The maintenance button is gray and cannot be pressed. Is this intentional?

Works for me. Do you have CUSTOM ACTIONS (DIFFERENT MOD) installed

Also maintenance only appears after something breaks

the author has not played the game for more than six months, this is bad. Be ready to continue his fashion, who knows how)

i don't have icons for maintenance and so how can i do something like that?

Now the game is like a real u boat.
Nothing like the motor breaking down after shadowing a convoy for over a day, missing the attack window causing massive frustration.

Alligator you are a star for providing these mods.

So I've ran it a couple of days now
-I get the maintenance as a popup, check the part, click on maintenance with an engineer selected, and then the part suddenly goes to 1 HP and becomes repairable? I didn't think this was the way it was supposed to work? I had thought clicking maintenance itself would make the engineer go do it? Even then, this seems to be more of a hassle than repair as repair happens automatically without needing your attention popup, the only difference seeming to be the cost of spare parts?
-Wish it was possible for regular sailors to be able to take care of maintenance tasks automatically
-The Sporadic failure frequency seems OK

@Nimrod
you mean the function in the MOD "Device Energy Management".
I understand, let me see to find a good solution for this function on optional ;)

Greetings,
Alligator

the pop up text telling that some devices become disabled when goin in silent mode (blue light), it gets very annoying. Plus, honestly, I will decide when and if turning those devices off. Make it optional please.

New MOD Update 1.0 Beta 03 hotfix 1:
- Compatible with UBoat version B131

This version is also compatible with older UBoat versions B129 and B130.

If you discover bugs, please report them in the "Bugs and suggestions" section.
Many Thanks.

Good hunting,

Alligator

it`s working fine for me in B-131. Thanks

Dear skipper friends,

thanks for your support.
I will update the MOD for the new version B131 in the next few days

I wish you a merry christmas!

Alligator

bump: is a B131 update needed for this mod?

@WindgedIncubus
With the crew management you can set who should carry out the repair/maintenance work automatically. For example, I solved it so that the chief engineer does not do the repairs automatically but only manually ;)

Greetings,
Alligator

I have a suggestion to make Mechanics more relevant compared to Engineers: How about making Mechanics automatically handle Maintenance duties, while Chief Engineers handle the repairs themselves?

@all
MOD should be compatible with version B130.
I will test this completely and make another info and MOD adjustment if this is necessary (like Launcher "outdated" textmessage).

Greetings,
Alligator

Yes, i mean the device energy management, sorry... thanks... i'm doing various tests about the mods contents, very nice mods (device energy management and device maintenance), you have done a good work, thanks.

@Ing.ALbi93
There is no refrigerator in this MOD "Device Maintenance". You probably mean the MOD "Device Energy Management". If you want to deactivate the MOD, I recommend you to do this in the port and switch off all devices of the MOD. Then save and remove mod. This should solve the problem.

Greetings,
Alligator

once disabled, the game keep rumors of fridge, heating and other of the mod

New MOD Update Version 1.0 Beta 03:
- Small adaptation to hard mode
- New message if a device is only slightly damaged

Greetings,
Alligator

New MOD Update Version 1.0 Beta 02:
- Version is no longer displayed as "outdated" in the launcher
- Hard mode added as an option. Please read the MOD description point "Hard Mode"

Alligator
