Default A simple idea on modding 'rig for silent running' command

I have an idea to mod the 'rig for silent running' command. A simple one really

At present pressing Z or ordering 'rig for silent running' would make our boat to travel at 3 knots.

The problem is that at 3 knots our boat is not actually running silently. If we can change this 3 knots speed to either 2 or 1 knots speed that would be the perfect silent running speed. At that speed DDs are going to have a very difficult job to listen to our propellers(engine) sound though its ASDIC or active sonar would definitely still work like a charm.

So my question is obvious: how do you make ordering for 'rig for silent running' sets our boat speed to 2 or 1 knots speed instead of the current 3 knots.

Changing speed after ordering 'rig for silent running' would not break this mod i.e, the boat may speed up to another speed but no reparing or loading would take place so I see no reason why this idea is a bad idea.


I tried playing with submarine folder tweak files and found no answer to this idea. Does anyone know how to adjust 'rig for silent running' speed to lower values? I'm not a modder. Or is it as I feared? The dreaded word for modders: Hardcoded

Thanks
