Request for Future Mod
 
Hello, I Love SH4 - play as much as I can but life gets in the way ;-)

I was wondering if it might be possible to include not just sinkings that are credited, for but I'd like to know what I've been hitting, too. I usually attack large tasks forces or convoys and try to engage as many as possible at once before the SHTF. That way I might sneak away to a safe distance.

Would it be possible to include this as a mod in a future release?

Thx

I don't believe it's possible. The Captain's Log is a hard coded part that has specific preset parameters. Listing a sunk ship is provided for, so are downed planes, but that's the extent of it. We can't modify something that doesn't already exist in-game when it comes to these kinds of things. The game doesn't keep tract of hit's or misses.....only destroyed units (planes/ships). Those are the only entries that are shown in the Captains Log.

If aanker was feeling better, I'm sure he'd mention Kim Ronhof's SH4 Report generator ver. 5102, which while it won't quite do exactly what it seems like you want, it might be to your liking. Just be sure and follow his instructions. :salute:

JANAC gave credit for ships sunk and ships damaged so i wonder why Ubisoft ignored the damaged part.

Just thinking here...i hope the smoke did not get in anyone's way.
:hmmm:

There's a lot in this game that got ignored, damaged ships record is barely a blip on the radar.
