I'm looking for the file or files that control which new sub is given and when during a career. Ideally I should be able to start in a Sugar boat, instead of "new construction" get promoted to a Porpoise, then a Salmon/Sargo, then Gar, etc. What I get instead seems to be a random dice roll.

One possibility would be changing the availability dates for various subs (example the Porpoise not available until July 42, Sargo Jan 43, Gar/Tambor July 43, etc. ) in the flotillas.upc file, but I'm hoping there's another "promotion" file somewhere to make it simpler.
