How to decrease wave size?

Do You know how to decrease wave size? I use Traveller Mod v1.7 for OM and it changes this value, but IMHO it's unnecessary and looks unrealistic.
What data should I change for it?

\data\cfg\Sim.cfg

Top part of the file;

[Mech]
Waves amplitude=1.0 ;[0,1]0.2
Waves attenuation=0.75 ;>=0 0.75

Reduce the Waves amplitude, not sure what effect the attenuation has - it's been a long while since I played with these values. The above example is form the in development TSWSM files and is a tad large - we want big seas so it makes battleships etc move around a lot more. To make this work I had to change handling and zone definitions for just about all vessels.

Suggest you reduce amplitude to the stock value (think this is 0.2) and see how it goes.

Thanks for info
