I don't know of any way to make more duds. If I knew how to do it, I would.

- Bring back the torpedo running pattern in F6 view (for FAT and LUT torpedos). Apparently this can be done by changing the file DashLine.tga in \data\Menu\Gui
It was removed because real commanders wouldn't have plotted it on their maps. I think it gives the player too much info.

- Realistic player ranks: I don't think there were any U-boat commanders with the rank of a mere Leutnant z.S. Let the player start as Oberleutnant...
There were 6 U-boat commanders whose final rank was Leutnant zur See. There were probably a lot more who commanded as a mere Leutnant and who rose to a higher rank. In RUb you only command as a Leutnant for a short while - usually only a single patrol.
