16. Forgot about this.
I completed physics work on the JPGunboat01, and 02 for earlier versions, but noticed they did not show up as map contacts. They seemed to react, take damage, and sink ok, but gave no credit. It was like they were Imperial UFO's; nobody would admit they were really there. I was wondering if they ever actually showed up in the RSRD campaign. I'm talking about the armed river boats.

Anyway, I finally figured out what the problems was. They were of the type 110 (environmental). Once I changed the type in the both the ships' *.cfg files, and the roster *.cfg files, they showed up. Not that these are important vessels, but might as well have them. And they show up in the rec. manual now, too.
