Sorry, Guys, I'm not really in the loop at the moment.
A number of things have happened.
1. Too many problems with this (and other ships I was working on). I think the method I am using is fundamentally flawed.
2. There's not been any real progress elsewhere on the ship damage concepts ( unless I've missed it !!) Without proper damage simulation these ships are a bit of a nonsense.
3. I had hoped that there would have been a general movement towards making a partial SH4 surface mod ( albeit with limitations) . This means tackling the wider issues, not just creating some playable novelty items. It's now fairly obvious this is not likely to happen.
