I think we should agree exacty how far we're going or what will be the goal, a simply mod or a complex mod. My idea was a more consuming mod.
Yep, the merchants could be addressed, but honestly having more or less single merchants really doesn't add much.

Redo all the crew ratings {course that's 80% of files} at least to bring RSRD to a TMO level. Like I said, get the merchant and capital ships to vet and elite ratigs, then redo escorts. Frankly I would like to see a mix from poor to elite on the above.

Add ships such as the Nagato, hospital ships, several others.

Rework the RSRD sensors that change TMO. Tater did some of this, but
just depends what we're after.

Rework the ports, add guns, lights, nets, mines, etc. Make it difficult as it should be, then special missions inside ports would be more fun.

Per above, correct and add special missions.

Maybe agree to use TMO's convoy layers if OK with Duci, course people could do tha on their own.

Certainly add more mis files with more traffic. For instance I have a china traffic mis folder, lots of groups later war that actually run the coast line, so you can really only attack seaside and at night.

I guess it shouldn't evolve more than traffic, up to you guys.
