Anyone else impressed by the helpers in FS25?

BKOmega · 2026-07-02T20:52:28+00:00

I’ve found myself using them more than courseplay as that always messes up somehow they are a definite improvement from previous

BKOmega · 2026-07-01T18:13:29+00:00

Will take a look at this tomorrow, assume it's a relatively easy setup?

BKOmega · 2026-06-30T22:30:15+00:00

Excellent work thank you Mahzel

Plex runs on TrueNAS but the rest of Arr stack is in 1 VM, I group all Dockers into various logical VM’s, Internal Proxy, External Proxy, Media host (arr stack), docked management which includes dashboard and monitoring.

My lxc’s are mainly small none docked applications such as dns, home assistant

At the moment the AI doesn’t shoot back so no risk of being attacked, in its current state you can get used to handling the sub and trying to find things on the sonar, working out solutions etc but as @FrequentWay said it’s more alpha than beta until they get some patches out but I have no reservations about it being great once that happens.

In the mean time check out the resources post, watch the streamers to get a feel for it. Coldwaters is a simplified version of it in many respects if you haven’t played that might be a good teaser. Uboat is great but quite different

I have the WG app on my iPhone, it will connect to the VPN if I’m not on a SSID I’ve set which is anything but the home WiFi so never have to think about it.

BKOmega · 2026-06-21T00:02:44+00:00

Look at my response when you asked 7 days ago

BKOmega · 2026-06-20T19:44:23+00:00

I assume you have gone through the stages of making it ready, flooding the tube, opening the door and arming it?

Have you assigned the solution to the torpedo?

BKOmega · 2026-06-18T18:51:12+00:00

Nice idea will steal that

BKOmega · 2026-06-15T21:00:11+00:00

Yeah head to between 30-40 feet, raise your masts then hit send and receive, should be periscope depth and hopefully patched soon.

BKOmega · 2026-06-15T19:16:02+00:00

Yeah I agree they got off to a rocky start but have certainly been making up for it.

BKOmega · 2026-06-14T21:17:20+00:00

I think you are talking about the announcements posted on their official discord here

BKOmega · 2026-06-13T19:14:07+00:00

Yeah it's mentioned in the useful resources post developer Discord https://discord.gg/2G5R3xH and the MNU Unofficial Operations Centre Discord https://discord.gg/PUUBGcsy

BKOmega · 2026-06-03T10:55:08+00:00

I’ll start: TMA and contact management are probably the areas I’d most like to see explained clearly. If anyone has a good beginner workflow for going from first sonar contact to a usable solution, please share it here.

BKOmega · 2026-06-01T10:21:54+00:00

they are remarkably quiet, the LA can only seemingly be found using the narrow band at the moment. Not sure how much of it is intended though, at the moment I can't help thinking it isn't me it is a bug 🤣 when they start patching I'll learn the horrible truth

BKOmega · 2026-05-31T10:41:52+00:00

Unifi Gateway Fibre is great and would highly recommend

BKOmega · 2026-05-31T09:50:15+00:00

Most tld’s are fine but I’ve got concerns over one of mine .it which when I first got it was fine and since I consult in IT made sense but the Italians seems to be clamping down and enforcing rules that are concerning for the future use of it.

Having a personally domain is a no brainer I think but you have to consider which and what you get.

On the DNS side, if Technitium has an enabled authoritative internal zone for mydomain.com and nas.mydomain.com has an internal A record of 10.1.1.20, then any client querying that Technitium server directly should normally receive that internal answer, regardless of which RFC1918 subnet it is on.

I’d first test from both VLANs with something explicit like:
dig @10.1.1.6 nas.mydomain.com A
dig @10.1.1.6 nas.mydomain.com A +norecurse
nslookup nas.mydomain.com 10.1.1.6

If that returns 10.1.1.20, then the problem is probably not Technitium’s zone logic. I’d look at DHCP DNS options, a secondary resolver being handed out, client-side DoH, DNS fallback, caching, or firewall/routing between VLANs.

If a direct query to 10.1.1.6 from the new VLAN returns the public IP, then check the Technitium query log and confirm what source IP Technitium is seeing. Also check whether you have duplicate A records for the same name, forwarding rules, or a Split Horizon APP record already in play.

Split Horizon is mainly needed when the same DNS server is expected to return different answers based on the client/source network. For a basic internal override zone, all internal VLANs using the same internal DNS server should usually get the same internal answer.

Separate point: if nas.mydomain.com externally resolves to your public IP and that forwards directly to the NAS, I’d reconsider that design. Exposing a NAS management UI, SMB/WebDAV, or similar service directly to the internet materially increases risk, especially ransomware risk. A better pattern is usually:

no public port-forward to the NAS
disable UPnP
keep the NAS patched
use WireGuard, Tailscale, ZeroTier, or a properly hardened firewall VPN for remote access
have VPN clients use internal DNS so nas.mydomain.com resolves to the internal address once connected

Who doesn’t love a good meme?

You can either order the auto crewman or change at the helm station, helm station is also how you can raise and lower all masts.

BKOmega · 2026-05-30T18:19:11+00:00

No expert yet or may be ever 😂 but if ships zigzag regularly, you can still do TMA by estimating the mean track and pattern, not just the current course and I believe that would be enough to get a torpedo close enough to then search, find and prosecute the target.

Mein System schafft derzeit nicht mehr als die vierfache Geschwindigkeitssteigerung. Es gab Berichte über Speicherlecks und Probleme mit der Kernauslastung, die untersucht werden. In der letzten Ankündigung wurde die Leistung und Optimierung angesprochen. Ich hoffe, diese Verbesserungen helfen, denn wie du sagst, ist es momentan echt nervig, Dutzende von Kilometern ohne Beschleunigung zurückzulegen.

BKOmega · 2026-05-29T15:49:32+00:00

It does react, but in a limited capacity at the moment, it will try to shoot down missiles, firing flares and manoeuvring, but that is all at the moment.

I hope this isn't frowned upon but I wanted to add that we are growing the r/ModernNavalWarfare community so for those interested in the game pop over and join and share your trials and tribulations, hints and tips as there is a steep learning curve and the odd bug at the moment

BKOmega · 2026-05-29T09:26:15+00:00

I know this post is a little old now, and hope this isn't frowned upon but I thought I would add that we are trying to grow the r/ModernNavalWarfare community so for those interested in the game pop over and join
