(REQ) mod to change U-Boat numbers

[Sgtmonkeynads]

With the new ship journal, which is awesome...and will lead to a lot of good stories and picture books. I request that some one makes a mod that will randomly change the boat number assigned to us.

Reason being, there will be a million u-21, the stock generic number.
I liked the randomness of the other games, because with each new campaign came a new boat number. I would then study that boats history, learned a lot.

I know work is being done and it is very appreciated, I wish I knew how to do this myself, so I could contribute something, but I can not. Anyhow it's just an idea.

Thanks, I know this isn't the right spot to ask, but it's where the journal posts will show up. Sorry.

You can change the uboat hull number yourself very easily. It's a simple options file edit.

##################################### Ships Journal ##################################################
# ship's hull number
UboatHullNumber = "U021"

# you have to edit \Documents\SH5\data\cfg\playersettings.cfg file to make the uboat hull number there match the entry above. Find this line:
# UnitName=x-xxx
# make it say the correct uboat hull number

# ship's captain name
UboatCaptainName = "TheDarkWraith"
