Dear Captains,
There is a new patch available for update 2026.1. If this patch causes issues, please try to verify game files integrity as described in this article:
Steam Support :: Verify Integrity of Game Files
Localization:
- Fix: Added missing translations to new loading hints.
Physics:
- Fix: Race condition in physics code that was happening randomly and could have various side effects.
Story system:
- Added voices to merchant ship captains.
- Fix: If a merchant ship was evacuated and its cargo hold was searched, there was no cancel button available there and decision buttons that were available shouldn't be there.
- Fix: If a story was played in an enclosed interior scene (for example a merchant ship's cargo hold) and the story UI was manually closed, then once the camera returned to the U-boat, ambient was often much more quiet than it should be. The issue was being resolved only after the story sequence was complete.
General:
- Fix: Issue that resulted in camera entering an invalid state after closing a port menu.
- Fix: Issue where selecting a new assignment was resulting in UI remaining stuck on the assignment selection screen.
- Fix: Several small errors with minor side-effects.
Yours,
DWS
