I think I need help with this. I have been trying to make my own little Kids mode and I have been able to make the IXD2 available, including the conn tower, sonar, Bold equipment and all the Flak guns that fit on it, in 1939 but no matter how hard I tweak the Basic.cfg I just can't unlock the torpedoes.

I have changed the date of all the "Torpedo_Type" sections to 07/1939,
the "Submarine_ammo" section for the IXD2 from 1939 to include automaticaly TIII and a couple of acoustics (advanced acoustic) torpedoes.

I also edited the Flotilla.cfg file and in the year in which I activated the IXD2, I also inserted (I think) the torpedo inventory for that date. The section about my inserted ship in Flotilla.cfg looks like this :

Date31=1939
Month31=7
Starting31=Yes
TypeSub31=2; IXD2
VersionSub31=3
iNbName31=3
Name310=U-177
Name311=U-178
Name312=U-179
T0_310=50
T0_311=60
T1_310=10
T1_311=20
T2_310=15
T2_311=20
T3_310=10
T3_311=30
T4_310=20
T4_311=20
T5_310=10
T5_311=30
T6_310=10
T6_311=20
T7_310=20
T7_311=20
T8_310=10
T8_311=10
T9_310=10
T9_311=10
PlayerStartRenown31=500

If I read this right there should be plenty of ordnance to equipment by boat but all that is loaded are TIII and a few TI.

I found nothing relating to torpedoes in the data/submarine/NSS_Uboat9d2/ folder either in the NSS_Uboat9d2.eqp, NSS_Uboat9d2.cfg or NSS_Uboat9d2.zon files.

From this point on...I am lost.

Any help would be appreciated.


PS: I have also tried to search for a thread on a "wishlist" for SHV (if it ever comes out) and am surprised not to have found any. Is there such a thread and what are the key words to find it in the forum search engine.


Thank you for your time.
