As I told before, there is no need to give up unlit trawlers: we can have lit and unlit ones at the same time

I think it is TDW_FXU_Lighthouse_flare.dat, in the library folder of FX Update. Anyway I am 99% sure that British lighthouses were obscured during WWII, and German Vichy-French beams were only lit when an Axis convoy/taskforce was know to be close by.

Yes, possible. I think that a mix of lit and unlit vessels would be a reasonable compromise for Total Germany

I think we can also use Appearance/Disappearance dates in roster cfg files for the same purpose.

I am curious to know which unit Id's are used in OH for each of the three campaign layers you have mentioned, Trevally.
Also, do you think it possible getting a few units in some nation's rosters to be only used as docked ships? It would be cool having some ships to only display their masthead lights while doscked in neutral ports, and to have full illumination when underway.
