Yes Frau, I get how to do the names fine, but the real thing I wondered about, and asked originally in Steve's shipnames thread was whether I can add Unknown to the cargolist and whether the crew entry is only read as nemerical or whether I could put unknown / unknown in the crew variable. However, on reflection, it is kind of making a mountain out of a molehill when just having Unidentified with no further info would perfectly suffice.

As far as the names being used more than once for the other classes, you are right, there are so many it's doubtful that it would be an issue. I can't see the same name coming up more than once in a single career so it's fine. Besides, would I see a name on patrol 7 and think 'I know that name, I already sunk that on patrol 3, ship number 4'. No, I'd never even notice.
