Yeah, this will probably go down as the most tedious, time consuming mod in the history of SH4.
Anyways, I've become pretty peeved at some of the ridiculous names used for AI crewmen, so I've decided to do something about it. Using the comprehensive list of names of all American submariners lost during WWII (from
here), commissioning crew lists, medal citations, etc., I am creating what will end up being a massive list of names the game can choose from. I'm not even through the letter B yet, but already I have over 60 surnames and first names compiled so far. Beyond the typical first names (tons of Johns, Charles and Georges), there are the others you just don't ever really hear, such as:
Hermas, Hollis, and General (yes, someone named their kid General
)
and last names, including:
Beutelspacher, Boo, and Argersinger
This is going to take a long time to complete, but I vow to complete it. More news to come later.
