Thanks for your help !!!

IMO the crewrating can be used to lower or higher the difficulty level without adversely affecting the way the "mod" works--so you shouldn't have to worry too much about that particular variable--it's not a finnicky set up--more fire and forget--it tends to take care of it's self no matter what other variables come into play--sensors change as per the date as normal so do the weapons obviously--weather and so on--it seems to handle these normal changes with the appropiate varience in difficulty etc

i haven't tried to put a straight jacket on the game here ---the game does what it normally does--except with more usefull and interesting convoy escorts --that's all--every-thing that was possible in the stock set up is still possible now--and that includes user customisations etc etc--

i'm completely satisfied that it solves the problem i joined the thread to solve--for me--and with the brainstorming done here by all there's plenty of scope for other approaches-
but for my situation (dumb-ass convoy escorts)- this solves the problems with this aspect of the gameplay in a flexible and elegant way--
