Well, in that case, open your US_NavalBases.mis file. As always, it's best to work with copies. Zoom in on the harbor (Pearl, I'm assuming) where you're going to place the boat. You don't have to come in all the way, just close enough to see Ford Island somewhat. Click on the "File" menu again, and this time choose "Merge...", which will bring up a little pop-up dialog. You want to be sure that you have the little tick-box "Mark merged data as saveable" UNTICKED or EMPTY. If you do not do that, anything you do will then be "merged" or combined together. Again, it's best to work with copies. After you click on the "OK" button, scroll through your Campaign files again, and choose "Campaign_LOC.mist". Click on the "Open" button, and there you should now have the docks and cities showing in your US_NavalBases.mis file. Zoom in the rest of the way so you can do your finding of the spot as mentioned above, and transfer that to your Flotillas.upc file, and test it. You can close your ME without saving. If you hear a bunch of screeching and howling when you load the game, you'll know you missed... Just be sure you have External Camera enabled, so you can see which way you need to go...
