Thanks for that tip , I didnt know that but I'm still confused about who holds wich teritory at certain times. Maybe someone can make a mod that displays ports with coloured names like SH3.

Stu
This is really important to me as well. why all port names are blue is beyond me. I wan't to be able to tell where the enemy territory is by glancing at the map. And this changed alot during the pacific war. Why in the hell would they get rid of a simple feature they already had such a coloured port and city names.

I'm sure this has been discussed before... has anyone been able to find out if it can be modded... can it?[/quote]

I could swear this was written someplace...but I like typing

Best education into this is thru the Mission Editor.

1) Sh4MissionEditor.exe --> found in SH4 root

2) File --> Open --> Normal Mission (scroll all the way to the right) click-on and Open: US_NavalBases.mis

3) Use the Hand tool to move around the Map. Zoom in and out.
3a. Bases look like a upsidedown T
3b. Anchors are naval bases, Striped or hashed anchors are subtenders. (These are just map graphics, not actual base entities)

4) Unselect the hand tool and Click-on one. (upsidedown T's) Right click Properties.
4a. Look at the Entry and Exit dates. These are the times the base or tender can be expected to service you.

**** Do not save, close out of the editor when done ***

There is a question as to if Subtenders can do a full refit vs. a rearming.

happy sailing
