I need to know what files are associated with the locations of docks in the Pacific and Japan. I think I know why many of the ports do not have any Warships. I would like to change some ports to show more warships instead of the same old Merchants. And many of the missions during the War were sent to Truk which was a large base for the Japanese and usually had warships coming and going.

I would also like to see if there were any patrols developed for Truk. Where do I find the patrol definitions.

I have found that you can not make single missions with docked ships because the docks do not come up in the editor. Of course you can put ships in the Bay but that is for single missions only.

The problem with SH4 is that is does not follow the war that closely. The ships in ports should be updated based on the war situation at the time but the game apparently can't do that.

So if there is a good modder out there that can tell me where these are located and if I need some decompilers for some of the files it would be much appreciated.

Oh yes, one more thing. In TM 1.7.6 Freemantle and Brisbane should be Refit bases. Pearl Harbor was not the only one.
