I've run into a problem with my campaign's compatibility. It tells me that SCSubchaser (which I used quite bit) and MSN013 are invalid which seems to mean they aren't a part of the group in SEA Folder anymore. I should be able to work around it by just changing those entries where I find them. Off the top of my head though, I can't figure out/remember what MSN013 is. Maybe a Minesweeper (I did use those when I wrote the campaign). If anyone knows off the top of their head, let me know please. Anyway, I have some work to do and it could be worse.
Looked through the campaign a little closer today and confirmed that LOTS of the escort crews have Novice rating. As I recall, Elites use max range of sensor capabilities, Veterans use like 80%, Competent 60% and so on down. If I'm wrong about this, please let me know.
Last question: what are you setting thermal layers at? That's pretty important to know to be able to do sonar testing.
