Crew: Medals and experience

[BladeHeart]

Can anyone confirm that by awarding a crew member a medal, such as an Iron Cross, you increase the number of experience points he has?

If so, does anyone know how much experience is awarded for each medal?

I ask as I use SH3Cmdr, and after each patrol I check my crew roster. Any crewman over the experience quota for his rank is either promoted or transferred.
It is part of a personal tweak to the career system to simulate crew development.

Any way, if anyone knows the answers to my question it would be appreciated; thanks :)

The values appear stored in the [MEDALS_CREW] block of Basic.cfg. When developing the Crew Manager component of SH3 Commander, I had a little bit of a look and found out:

-an EK2 increases experience by 1.25%
-an EK1 increases resilience (appears to be by 1)
-a DK increases morale (haven't worked out by how much though)
-an RK...no idea
-a Front Clasp increases resilience (haven't worked out by how much though)
-a War Badge does nothing
-qualifications...no idea
-promotion increases resilience (haven't worked out by how much though)

I remember asking this forum a while ago if anyone knows the rules - because if someone knows, I would like to know so I can model them in SH3 Commander.

I've heard that a GermanCross (or knights cross?) increases effiency in the compartment the recipitent is in.

The German Cross in Gold makes its wearer immune to fatigue.
It's all here in the SubSim Forum's very own Wikipedia Manual:

Unfortunately, apart from the DK, this really doesn't tell me anything I didn't already know. But, at least from that perspective, it's good to know I'm on the right track.
