I assumed that Anvart may be trying to tell me that the SMC was hard coded for only player subs and ships, but that's not what i got, and assumptions, when you're looking for hard facts, are useless.
IIRC leaves the possibility that he may NOT recall correctly, which throws in to doubt the rest of his statement.

Yes, of course you can try... if you do not regret about time spent uselessly...

Which begs the question, how do you know?
have you tried using it to cause the sinking of supposedly sunk ships?
. . .No indication given.
I'm afraid i was left with nothing i could call constructive or definitive information.
If he wants to withold any information, he's perfectly entitled to. I have no problems with it.
But i was surprised, disapointed, and none too pleased with what looked like the derisory phrasing of those comments, not least because Anvart has never struck me as someone prone to that type of behaviour before.
That said, i am also aware of Anvart's difficulty with English, but wasn't aware of perhaps HOW MUCH difficulty he has with it.
Anvart, if you read this, please accept my unreserved, and most humble apologies for my misunderstanding ( mistake ) . . .good sir.
Regards the SMC, sometimes the best way from A to B, is via a stop off at C, so the SMC possibilities are not over yet.
I've only just scratched the surface on SMC's and the sinking issue.
But this garaunteed sinking problem has become the key to everything i've been working on during the last 6-9 months.
The fact that it already exists in SH3/GWX is no excuse, i have to find a solution, or it's not good enough.
What has become clear, is that as usual, i'm on my own with it.
Editing hardcode . . .as you say, big no no.
Dll intercept's . . . apparently manifests are more reliable than dot.local's, but Vista is supposed to have restrictions on known DLL's ( of which kernel.dll is one ) which don't necessarily work ( the O/S tends to allow none or all ) .
Don't know about Windows 7.
These abilities may be restricted by future updates on any or all O/S's, so don't represent a favoured stable solution.
But thanks.
And Anvart, sorry if i've hijacked your thread.
My questions were only meant to be quickies
