The RecMan is Recognition Manual, and is at the heart of the OTC. Every ship of necessity has changes made to its sim file at a minimum, for conformity to OTC, and they are therefore updated for the Recognition Manual. Any additions or changes to any ships in the game have to be done in a manner compatible with OTC. OTC overwrites the RFB's ship sim file changes... Originally, OTC was written for Stock by CapnScurvy, and he converted a version for RFB v1.4. Near as I can tell, he did not participate in the conversion to v2.0, only lending permission for it to be done. Someone else did the conversion. Not saying that it isn't compatible, just that CapnScurvy didn't do it. If there were sinking mechanics in RFB2, a person would have to merge the RFB2 sim files with the OTC ones, if that hadn't been done before...
ah so.
well, i don't use the recognition manual so i am safe from that.
