No. There is no way to change medal/badge award dates to players in SH3 as SH3 is not programmed that way (maybe with the SDK :rotfl: - sorry, unrelated joke).
However, in some mods (like GWX, RUb, NYGM), the renown/tonnage required for such medals/badges is increased to "fudge" a later awarding date (and in some instances decreased for the opposite reason), but that's the best we can do without coding changes. This change has the effect in that instead of getting the front clasp after sinking 5,000 tons (stock), you don't get it until you've sunk 60,000 tons (GWX and prolly others too)...which for some players is still after the first few patrols anyway.
And I didn't think it appropriate to "autofix" player medals in SH3Cmdr due to the confusion/annoyance/whatever that it may cause some players who like seeing copious amounts of medals everytime they sink a trawler.

Thankyou.
I wonder ... can I "fudge" it in the GWX files so that I only get this badge after 150,000 tons? :hmm: That might bring it in line with the historical date .....(the way I sail, anyway)
