Sure!

Ideas.......we usually have a "boat load" of them. Figuring ways to implement them into the game is the trouble.

Some things can be manipulated to have the game think it's doing something, yet through modding, the results are actually something else. We didn't really change the way the game engine works (unfortunately no one has cracked the SH4 hard code to change specific processes/outcomes....if we did the folks around here would have you banned in a minute!! Not to mention legal implications from UbiSoft), but we can change the physical appearance of a process and make it appear something new has happened within the game. There's still limitations on just what we can do.

For example, the Kamikaze plane icon on the map screen is still going to be visible at the further out zoomed views because the darn thing is a plane. Sure I can remove the plane icons completely for all planes.....doesn't TMO or RFB do that? But, I really don't want to do that. The map screen in-game is your SD radar in use. I really don't want to take away the ability of using the Nav Map to show a planes location since that's the only physical way of displaying a planes position.......except for using my Radar setup that OTC introduces. Which, when I think of it, maybe that isn't such a bad idea. Use the Radar as it was intended to find approaching planes.......but wait, the problem still exist's......the Radar will still show the Kamikaze blip traveling away from the sub after it's hit the target because the Kamikaze plane itself isn't the delivering plane, it's just a bomb dressed up like a plane. The delivering plane is invisible to us, yet the game knows exactly where it is. Will show it on the map or Radar screens, and fire away with AA weapons after the Kamikaze bomb hits the target, and the invisible delivering plane makes it's get a way.

You see, we can dress up the monkey and make him dance, but it's still just a monkey underneath!
