Default SH-3 Commander Question

I am just starting to use SH-3 Commander and I have a question about an option in the settings. Actually it is a lack of an option and I am wondering why?:hmm:

I don't use the "Generic Names" option (the one that will just call a ship a generic class like "destroyer" in the notepad) because it also seems to erase the real name of the type of ship in the ID book. More so for me, I don't like how if I am at periscope depth and I want to do a sweep with the scope the notepad will flash the name of the class of ship when I point my scope down its bearing even if I happen to miss sighting the ship myself.

So what I do is use the mod that puts a "-" in the notepad for every ship type. This way when I pass my scope over a target the notepad doesnt flash any name at all. I have to see the ship myself to know it is there.

I am wondering why SH-3 Commander doesnt give us this option? Is there something I don't know about using the "-" notepad mod? Does it effect the AI at all?

Also, I am a little confussed about the rollback button. (I know it is going away in the next version). Am I ONLY suppost to use it if I am uninstalling SH-3 Commander or do I use it more then that. :hmm: I am a little puzzeled by it.

Thanks for the great SH-3 Commander program! I love the randomness it adds to ther sim! (Crush depth, failures, thermal layers, ect....) OUTSTANDING!!!!!:rotfl:

Oh yeah...... One more question....
Am I suppost to start SH-3 from within SH-3 Commander everytime....even if I am in the middle of a patrol???

Thanks
