I don't know, but either way, look in the menu.txt file in the Data / Menu folder, and you'll find text around line 5890= that includes what you encounter: "... of the #SUBMARINENAME# during the #PATROLNUMBER# war patrol(s) of ..." etc. Of interest is the "#" hash symbol for print "formatting", such that there is the variable of "SUBMARINENAME" and "PATROLNUMBER". If there was a way to "capture" that prior to "fetching" it, and subtract 1 from it... but alas, this is SH4...  |
Ah, got ya. Been a while but don't remember the bug in stock, but again it has been a while. A decade now actually, time flies.
