Cunard Liner

I just insalled the Cunard liner andd in the game she come up as LUS,does that mean she's the Lusitania? If so how can you sink a ship that was sunk 24 years before WWII began? Sh3 won't allow you to set a date like May 17 1915.

Cunard had one four funnelled liner left by WWII - the Aquitania. You could assume that the Cunard Liner is this ship instead.

She survived the war to be scrapped in 1951, I believe - maybe in your game, she will be less fortunate.

Hi andy one thing you wanna check is the en.log in the NLUS file
On another ship ( LPL ) noticed the displacement was -20,000
so had a look thru some of the others and found the same in the NLUS.
In the en.log it was ~44,000 which the game read as -44,000 ,and the de.log was -20,000 so you will need to correct them or get a - tonnage for sinking

Even with the stock ships, sometimes the tonnages in the log files are incorrect. Check the Coastal Merchant too.:hmm: It's not too hard to fix, actually.

no you just remove the -
didnt realise the coaster was too - will check that now thanx

EDIT
No mine was ok but notice the .sil for the NHPB is a tug !!!!
A little OT but if that was made from the tug maybe thats why my NASW ( Anti sub trawler ) made from the tug doesnt work in the missin editor but does in the museum - well I cant see it anyway

I did a quick and simple single mission on the lus and put 3 fish into her before she sank surfaced and got cretited for 44,665 tons for the LUS.
