Harbor Traffic mod?

[avers]

Hey guys, I've been playing sh4 with mods for a while and I noticed that the American harbors (like Manila and Surabaya) don't have a lot of ships or harbor traffic. Is there a harbor mod out there? Or is anyone planning on making a harbor mod? Or (and this might be a bit of a long shot) could someone teach me how to make a mod for harbors in sh4?

This isn't exactly a harbor mod;

But it does add a lot of traffic, friendly and enemy, to the beginning of an Asiatic career in Manila Bay.

As for do it yourself, it's fairly simple - make a backup copy of

\Silent Hunter 4 Wolves of the Pacific\Data\Campaigns\Campaign\US_NavalBases.mis

Go to \Silent Hunter 4 Wolves of the Pacific and run Sh4MissionEditor.exe

Open the US_NavalBases.mis, add harbor traffic as desired. Click on the tab Mission, then Parameters, check the box for "Ignore player submarine", then Accept. Save, exit, try it out.

If you screw it up copy the backup of US_NavalBases.mis in to replace the edited one and try again.

There's no danger in experimenting with editors if you always remember to copy any file you intend to edit to a safe backup folder before starting.

Thanx, but that just taught how to make new quick missions. How do I add more ships to ports in the campaign?
