Default Devs, please let crewmen attain the rank of Oberleutnant

Right now this is only possible by editing the Ranks.upc file. The problem is that it results in the crew portrait being that of a Matrose instead of an officer, and no rank insignia will be displayed.

Can we please have a fix for this? Many a watch officer and chief engineer serving on U-boats held the rank of Oberleutnant. Restricting it to the two officer cadet ranks and Leutnant makes no sense.

Is that the case? If so, I agree, because in SH3 the chief engineer starts as an oberleutnant.

Yep, it is. The devs also made the Bootsmann rank a junior NCO one instead of a senior one.
