SSBalao.cfg - 19th month calender!!

Kaleun · 02-07-08, 02:19 PM

Hi,

FYI

I was looking in data\roster\american\submarine\SSBALAO.cfg, i was looking to see what boats would be around if i commissioined a Balao - the DOD (Date of Disappearance) entry for the USS Cisco [unit 6] was 19431928, i didn't realise the US used a 19 month calender (that would explain why the NFL season is so short!!). I did some research and the boat was lost on 28TH OF SEPT 1943.

Easy fix just edit the file

[Unit 6]
Name=USS Cisco (SS-290)
DOC=19430101
DOD=19430928

I use TM 1.7.6 but i don't know if this is a stock typo! but if you get the USS Cisco after it was sunk in real life, this is the reason.

Nice find

I don't have any mods that change that file and it looks the same way in my game, so I'm about 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% sure that it's a stock snafu.
