Did you change the UnitClass name of the Jap sub tender (in the two .cfg files) from the one the stock game uses? You have to have a separate name for the game to know the difference between an American sided ship and the Japanese one (besides just putting the right files in the right place).

Changing a ship from a cargo to a tanker, or a dive bomber plane into a torpedo bomber is done in the .cfg file too (although there is some things you have to do in the plane .sim file). The proper "number" designates such.....which comes from the Names.cfg file.

That's the missing part. I'll have to play with it tonight and see if I can effect a change that will work. The sub tender is still named AS Sub Tender in all three of the cfg files. Thanks for the tips, Capn.
