However there's a little problem with it. When you hover with the mouse over a contact symbol in the TAI or NAV map, a little pop up appears that says merchant or warship. These messages should be either removed or renamed (by something like "ship" or "visual contact"). Otherwise there's no point in using the same shapes for all ships. Could you do this for your next release (I don't think this should be very difficult for you to manage  ). |

I believe there's a way to do it but it would require you all to edit the menu.txt file at your end. This is because it would be way to much work for me to do 3 simple changes X the number of languages this mod supports X 2. If you want to do it try this:
821=Contact;Warship
822=Contact;Merchant
823=Contact;Submarine
this should change the tooltips used
EDIT:
just tried it and it works! I'll include that little spiel in my documentation so that users can do this if they want.
