[REL] Natural Sinking Mechanics

[Wulfmann]

Tater,
I am beginning to do a check of RND files for accuracy, particularly the task force groups.
They are way off
Japs ran a decent navy and like most grouped ships by class.
With rare exceptions battleships and cruisers and even destroyers traveled with their sisters.
In the RND files Ise, Fuso and Kongo are mixed.
Didn't happen.
I changed that so it could not.
While there were rare occasions when heavy cruisers were mismatched (Savo Island Chokai led the 6 gun Aoba type cruisers) they normally stuck together.
I am also re-dating the roster so Maya is added to Takao until her damage and modding when she re-enters as a single class Maya.( I have added the names to Takao class as well as Kongo in the roster)
I have moved Mogami to enter in Jan 43.
However, in my TF groups I have left type 7s with no name so others could still see the inaccurate variation but no generic type 7 is anything but a single ship. No double Mogami or Maya groups.
I have also redone the escorts to be the more modern DDs that would have escorted such TFs.
I have eliminated multi CVEs as they were not in service in 42 save one.
As for DDs
The Minekazes and Musukis were converted to fast transports so could never have been TF escorts but I have made them the primary convoys escorts (ships used are missing from SH4) plus the fast transport roll is not done in the game as it was in real life in the Solomons.
I have no intention to offer mods in SH4 (Other games have taught me well enough the grief) but will be happy to send the stuff for you to look at and use or consider parts of in your mods.
I mean this with no disrespect. I do not care if they are not used. I will mod my version to suit history within practical limits but my intention is to play and enjoy SH4 not become a mod provider so will not be offended if nothing I make is used by anyone.
However, as it sits now 1942 is so far off it begs correction, at least in my rig.
