As im sure many know, i released TMaru 1.3 saturday, and im here posting this message, admitting (cause i dont think everyones gonna read the mods thread) that perhaps i was a little premature, and for that i apologize. My only excuse is that im only a single person, so mistakes will be made, or things overlooked. Im really startiing to wonder if i should have just sucked it up and tried to form an offical mod team or at the least a test group. I just didnt want to turn the mod into a major commitment.

Anyway, known issues:

1. Torpedo tube doors openly slowly.
I saw what ubi did, but didn't think it neccessary to implent in the file because my settings and ubi's settings accomplished the same thing. I was trying to maximize my time usage, so i didn't spend any time on this particular bit. What i didn't think of was that thered be a difference in code on how fast one way to open the doors would be vs the other way. In short, its an easy fix.

2. Tambor bearing tool misplaced. Ooopy.

3. No traffic around marshal islands. Stock issue. I was going to get around to reworking campaign files eventually.

4. 500 MB save game files. Im still not 100% positive this is a Tmaru issue, or stock issue, but im leaning on its a Tmaru issue from what ive read. My best guess is:

A.) Garbage collection. in terms of units spawning, something is spawning like wildlfire and/or something is not being removed from the game after it reachs its final waypoint. This could be occuring in the normal JP MIS files (unchanged in patch 1.3 and subsequently unchange in Tmaru's version of these files ), or the US harbor traffic MIS layer (untouched by Tmaru, but changed in patch 1.3)

b.) Some wierd code change is making my Bungo Pete mod act wierd (wild guess), as it creates a JP DE when there otherwise isnt one.

If your having 500 MB saves, delete the campaign folder and see if the problem reoccurs. Hopefulll that will fix it in the meantime, whilst i try and pinpoint the issue.

So in short, SITREP? SNAFU.
However, Tmaru 1.3a will be surfacing ASAP, and hopefully not another BOHICA.
