Does it actually do anything?
Since it only changes the
[Unit 1]
Name=Arare Maru
DOC=19430101
DOD=19450816
stuff, and that is not used by the game at all as far as I can tell, I think we need to change the top bit of the roster for it to work.
[UnitClass]
ClassName=OMPaula
UnitType=101
AppearanceDate=19270101
DisappearanceDate=19470101
DisplayName=BR Medium Tanker
to
[UnitClass]
ClassName=OMPaula
UnitType=101
AppearanceDate=
19430101
DisappearanceDate=19470101
DisplayName=BR Medium Tanker
I'm interested to know if it does work, though. If it does, then all that typing I like to do in the roster (I add all the right names, too
) isn't for naught.
This does bring up an interesting point, the eqp files would really require clones for the non-japanese versions so the guns/crews are not japanese. I have to say, there are a few SH4 ships I just want to get rid of, and Paula is one of them---it is not the least bit "generic" looking, and there was only the one in the Japanese Merchant Fleet.
