As a matter of fact, I went from getting about 19,000 - 25,000 per patrol down to about 5,000.

Does Commander alter the tonnage you see during a patrol? If so, how do you change it back to the way with was in GWX? I want a Convoy

Thanks!
SH3Cmd has nothing to do with convoys or ships in game. You are just unlucky. There have been cases I haven't seen a convoy for a couple of missions, but that's part of the randomness of the game

Okay, cool....I can live with that. Randomness is a plus in my book, gotta keep it interesting.....just wanted to make sure.

The tonnage doesn't change that much. If I remember correctly it must be around 10%. The lack of ships and convoys as I said before have nothing to do with SH3Cmd. This is a rock solid program

SH3 Commmander will vary the tonnage for an individual ship from 75% to 115% of normal.

@ All

LOL - Just bear in mind the Spy Sat will have to be updated when the latest GWX patch is released as there have been changes to the campaign structure. A couple of days after the release of this patch I'll have an updated version for you.

Sorry for OT JS

Is there any way to prevent SH3 Commander from changing this text in main manu -in GWX it is -"All you need is good men..."? I know that this text can be changed via editing en/de menu.txt but i couldnt find how SH3 Commander changing it. Its not a big deal, but i dont like readin every time i load the game: "Loaded via SH3 Commander..."
(its the same like with "initializing", or "Not so long ago..." right after patrol is loaded - i changed it to "Next patrol..." because it seems more "real" - if you know what i mean).

Open SH3 Commander\Cfg\SH3 options.cfg. Scroll down to [TEXTSETTINGS]. Delete the three loadup text lines. Save and close. Done.

While I kind of like "Loaded via SH3 Commander..." knowing where to change it is cool. I mean you could make it say "sink the all" or some jazz.

Crew management is most excellent. About the only time I use the in-game system is when I need new crewmen or can promote a sr. cheif po to sub-Lt. Not sure if that was actually done IRL but it's a game. Being able to change grids is slammin`
