Right now this is only possible by editing the Ranks.upc file. The problem is that it results in the crew portrait being that of a Matrose instead of an officer, and no rank insignia will be displayed.

Can we please have a fix for this? Many a watch officer and chief engineer serving on U-boats held the rank of Oberleutnant. Restricting it to the two officer cadet ranks and Leutnant makes no sense.

Is that the case? If so, I agree, because in SH3 the chief engineer starts as an oberleutnant.

Yep, it is. The devs also made the Bootsmann rank a junior NCO one instead of a senior one.
