As mentioned you are playing the "Terrible T" campaign that Ducimus made for TMO 2.5.

I made a small patch for players who wanted the normal progression of new commands: from TAMBOR to GATO to BALAO etc, that seems to work for the people I asked.

You would need to install it on top of TMO 2.5 in a New Career.

It is available here:

Description

Trigger Maru Overhauled ver 2.5 - Fix attempt:

TMO_25_fix_attempt, it may or may not work. (it works)

Test fix, I followed Ducimus' recollection, modified the Submarines with 2.2 patch data, and dragged Flotillas from 2.2.
As he mentioned Career Start, I got that from 2.0.

Ducimus has not endorsed me, I'm just trying to help a burnt out old nice guy modder, Mr Ducimus.

This patch removes the bug that would give the player a TAMBOR class submarine as an upgrade to a new command from a GAR, GATO, or BALAO class boat.

The progression into new and better developed boats is, PORPOISE, SALMON, SARGO, TAMBOR, GAR, GATO, BALAO, and TENCH. A BALAO class can dive deeper than a SALMON or SARGO class for example.

TMO 2.5 has the progression into a newer command from a GATO class going back to a TAMBOR class sometimes when the player would expect a BALAO class.

There is nothing wrong with a TAMBOR class submarine and Ducimus made the TAMBOR class campaign in TMO 2.5. I would be happy to patrol in USS Tuna the entire War. If you want the T campaign, disable this patch. If you want the normal progression enable this patch on top of TMO 2.5.

This patch will make the game advance the career into newer submarine classes.

Rather than show every boat, I only expanded the TAMBOR & GAR classes to show every submarine in the table below.

Hope that helps...

Happy Hunting!
