For a year now I have been working on an upgrade to TMO and plan to release at the end of this month. Among things included in the upgrade is the ability for the player to now pull off realistic night surface attacks, which to my knowledge has not been possible thus far in stock, TMO etc. Player can now maneuver submarine on surface and attack in a realistic manner, but the escorts merchants are not blind and are still very much a threat. This is mainly possible due to the nights being darker, more in line with reality of nights on the open ocean. Of course moonlight is a key factor. I will explain further upon release but bottom line finally can utilize this method of attack properly, even from inside the convoy in some circumstances...depends on variety of factors but it is possible.


I also added many ships to roster and modified the traffic to be more in line with history, offer variety so not engaging same old ships all of the time, modified the depth charges, torpedoes, and damage models some. Plus other changes which will be listed in a readme.

I still have some work to do that won't make it in this month's release as have ran into tech problems on few things and do not have time to sort them out, but overall it is complete.
