Just completed my first patrol using Poor Man's Enigma. I tried a slightly different tack than your approach of encrypting parts of the messages.txt file. I decided that the chefsache messages should be the ones addressed to my boat only. So I went into menu.txt and encrypted all the BdU responses and wolfpack messages. Stock has only a half-dozen, but h.sie and Stiebler bring the total to nearly 70. Now, when I send a patrol report or a contact report, I have to wait until I can decrypt it to see BdU's response.
This, of course, is totally unnecessary from a game-play perspective, and perhaps not even historical. But it sure is cool! LGN1, thanks again for a really creative enhancement.
