Default How to increment the number of lifeboats?

Hi, mates:

I would to know a procedure to increment the number of lifeboats "launched" by the ships when they sunk.

What is the variable regulating that?

My problem is of consciousness...Years sinkings ships in SH3 and SH4 (and now SH5).

Many thanks in advance!

I have no idea. Maybe this is hard-coded?

Edit:
Duh- It has to be the "SurvivalPercentage" or "SurvivalRate" values in the ships' *.cfg files.

Most ships will only discharge 2-3 lifeboats. One mission, I was directed to sink a Titanic-esque liner, protected by 7 escorts. It was apparently a troop ship, because when torpedoed, over 20 lifeboats were launced....
