Description:

The Type VII submarine was a class of medium attack U-boats built for Germany’s Kriegsmarine from 1935 to 1945. The Type VII was designed for attacking the North Atlantic convoy lanes and formed the backbone of the German effort in the Battle of the Atlantic during World War II.

The U-Boat is fully functional with the ability to submerge, fire torpedos, use the deck Flak and 8.8 gun as TABS weapons, use the ladders to enter/exit the interior and open doors and hatches throughout the whole submarine.

!!! to use this mod you have to disable the "Space And Rockets" mod !!!

This mod features:
– Type 7c U-Boat with unpainted and striped version
– G7 Torpedo

Controls:
-in player perspective
Rmb: open/close doors and hatches
E: use the ladders

-in U-Boat driving mode
H: open/close front and back torpedo hatches (if you forget to open them, the torpedos will explode inside the sub)
T: launch front torpedos
B: launch back torpedo
Ctrl: diving
Space: ascend

*you can enter the U-Boat view, while looking down on the hull from pretty much everywhere

– in Gun mode
regular TABS controls:
Rmb: commander view
Shift: sight view
B: change ammunition
R: change between Flak and 8.8 gun

*you can enter the gun view on the Flak on top of the bride

I hope you like my first not Star Wars related mod 😀 It was a real challenge to get all the scripts working for my model but in the progress of making this, I actually learned a lot about coding for Teardown. I will put this knowledge to good use in future mods. Just to clarify I will continue to make Star Wars mods but I will make more ships and other military stuff too.

Fixed: -torpedo propeller design (It was not intended to display any political symbols, it’s just hard to model a proper propeller on such a small space)

Thanks to the people on the TABS Discord server, that helped me solve some issues, while settin up the TABS guns 😀
