Now, knowing player will lose career for destroying a friendly vessel, can't have the AI fleetboat representing Darter be a friendly unit. So added a AI fleetboat renamed USS Darter to environmental file. Problem is, it never shows up. All the entries etc are correct. Kind of like icebergs, never see them lol.

Ay ideas? Quick fixes? Perhaps change it to a neutral country? Russia? I forget if get in trouble for sinking neutral. Believe I accidentally sunk a Russian freighter in night surface attack off La Perouse Strait years back but forget if were any consequences.

Propbeanie. Others modders. Suggestions?

the date thing can be tough to troubleshoot.

sometimes, it is something simple. PM me the definition you are using, whether it is a dotMIS or Cfg, and i'll eyeball it.


you can sink a neutral and not get into too much trouble.

the trouble starts when you sink a lot of neutrals. this was more of an ATO issue because the US participated in WWII for 2+ years as a "neutral". the Comsubpac and Cominch did not worry a lot about this in the PTO.

anyway, i could swear there was a CFG file that determined how much negative was associated with own-kills and neutral-kills but i cannot find it.
