[WIP] Titanium/Nuke and tweaked Damage Mods....

For those few who enjoyed the Titanium or Nuke boat mods - a version that is 1.4 ok should be out - probably over the weekend. However, I need a bit of feedback. With the great new tools out, and an increased understanding - I can correct the biggest flaw of the mods - the hull being nearly indestructable, but the interior getting smashed to bits. I played with a test gato last eve - and could sit on the surface next to the Yamato and take full broadsides from her - without a dent - externally OR internally. No crew got hurt, no one shouting "MEDIC!!!!!", not a single shade of red on the DC screen. I even rammed an Ise on the surface without needing so much as a touch up of paint.....

Thing is - is this what you want? An indestructable boat? Or should I keep it where you can still be damaged a bit if your too careless?

Second - and personally more important - I will be creating a tweaked damage mod. As it is now - many see an entire compartment get hosed, but the boat still be salvageable. Things like the hull holds together, but the engines are destroyed, or the torp room is leaking just a little but you lost 4 out of 6 tubes. With the way it is now - some equipment is just to... exposed. Heck - take a shell on the hull - apparently the hole it made can be patched up, but the stuff inside is shot till you get back to the barn. I am going to try and fix that - but there will be no "invulnerable" pieces.

What I ask for is this - give perspective on what you think needs tweaking - and how. This isnt for realism sake - though I would like to get it closer to realistic. Basically - I have my own list of things to tweak - and how - but cmon - throw some others out and we will see what comes from it. I do ask that no one trashes anyone else's idea - state your case as you see it - dont get into a back and forth.

Oh - and in case anyone wants to know - its hilarious to launch a torp when your going faster than it is - have it pass THRU the interior of the sub while its waiting to arm - then go BOOM when it starts to exit the hull! And yes - still no damage. But I did get a "Torpedo impact!" message and I could swear I heard the crew cheer!
