I'm trying to make sense of these IDs and parent IDs, can't find the rudder. That ridiculous scenario where the sub is good to cruise at speed, dive and surface, but has the rudder blown off so you can't steer happened to me AGAIN. Might as well do a suicide dive unless you happen to be pointing directly at a base, because without the rudder you can't change heading since differential propeller steering was left out of the game.

So I want to add 20 zillion hit points to the rudder, make the blasted thing impossible to destroy. Which file, sim zon dat and specifically which index number? :/\\!!

what you're looking for is in the Zones.cfg file which is located in the data folder. Open the file using notepad and look for RudderXXI, then find the Destrucable=Yes and change it to No. What that will do is keep the rudder from being completely blown off but still allow it to take damage.

Thanks, I was using silent 3ditor to hunt for it and never thought to look in one of the main CFG files. :salute:
