I know a few folks are pretty damn good at this now and maybe we should all put in a one last haul of the randomisation features of SH3 commander once GWX has been released.

A possible start would be listing what is worth randomising
I'm also waiting to see what GWX comes out with. I definately got tired of getting the same messages for the entire career and when I saw your template for randomising them I had to give it try. Great idea!

Since I like having a WO who actually does things I play with his input "on". I hope someone can find a way to Randomise his sighting reports. When I can barely see the masts at 15000M it takes away some from the experience when he can tell me what exactly what kind of ship it is. "Merchant" or "Warship" would be fine, at least until I got closer.
Yes, I know what you mean. I think that is just a case where you have to use player defined rules. I only will ask for the range via the uzo when it's close or will ask for confirmation of my ship type after I have looked it up in the recognition manual. Sometime back I tried to tinker with the sonar operator and his range calls only to find out that there was a strict limit in the codes he can and will use, the rest is hardcoded. It's a shame in someways, given how modable this sim is, that certain things can't be altered.

Looking forward to the GMX mod as well as all others - never ceases to amaze me the brilliance of many here that mod. They don't just make red blue, they make the game unlike anything that was initially released. I am sure there have been times when the developers have read these boards, downloaded a mod and quietly had that look of, "Damn, I should have thought of that!" on their face
