Hi Stiebler and h.sie,
just a belated comment about the "Cfg-Date Bug": I made a small test with a set of campaign files containing only a Black Swan (cfg-date: 1938(9)). If I start a campaign in 1944/45 it has radar, hedgehogs,... I did not try to start a campaign in 1939 and continue until 1944 to see whether the result is the same, but I guess I would get the same results. So, until there is more evidence from rowi58, I doubt there is a problem. It would be great if rowi58 could say some words why he thinks there is a bug.
Cheers, LGN1

I do not know what his evidence is for this. It is quite certain in game play that the escorts become much better at detecting U-boats later in the war, whether by Asdic or by radar.
I think it would be a good idea to find a way of randomising the addition of new equipment, instead of having it available at the same date each time you play, but I do not see any purpose in randomising the cfg files of the warships.
But maybe Rowi knows better than me. Has H.sie seen any improvement in game play with GWX after using his original program to make changes?
