Only one account per player available.

Select your captain in top list. Click Edit button. In showed dialog click delete button. But if your old captain still in your save files then he will add to program again. So delete your save files with old captain too.

Why? Maybe just rename it? If so tell me new account name.

New version:

Added increase of captains rank. Criterias (patrols counts only more than 2 days):

 

rank.Name = "Oberleutnant zur see";

rank.Name = "Kapitanleutnant";
rank.PatrolsCount = 5;
rank.Renown = 5000;

rank.Name = "Korwettenkapitan";
rank.PatrolsCount = 10;
rank.Renown = 10000;

rank.Name = "Fregattenkapitan";
rank.PatrolsCount = 15;
rank.Renown = 15000;

rank.Name = "Kapitan zur see";
rank.PatrolsCount = 20;
rank.Renown = 20000;
m_ranks.Add(rank);

Added visualization of ranks and awards from virpil Ansirial. Due to the fact that the game is very unrealistic distributes awards in the program settings appeared select "Show Awards" with two options:
1) According to historical criteria. In this case, the program itself after each patrol rewards the player if he has reached the required parameters. The only exception here Der Kriegsorden des Deutschen Kreuzes, because less accurate historical parameters for this award is not given and it somehow randomly. Because the game also seems to give the award at random, and then leave it as is.

Criterias:

 

award.Name = "Eisernes Kreuz 2. Klasse";
award.PatrolsCount = 1;
award.TonnageSunk = 10000;
award.Renown = 500;

award.Name = "Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse";
award.PatrolsCount = 2;
award.TonnageSunk = 50000;
award.Renown = 2500;

award.Name = "Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes";
award.PatrolsCount = 4;
award.TonnageSunk = 100000;
award.Renown = 5000;

award.Name = "Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes mit Eichenlaub";
award.PatrolsCount = 8;
award.TonnageSunk = 200000;
award.Renown = 9000;
award.DateFrom = new DateTime(1940, 6, 3);

award.Name = "Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes mit Eichenlaub und Schwerter";
award.PatrolsCount = 10;
award.TonnageSunk = 220000;
award.Renown = 15000;
award.DateFrom = new DateTime(1941, 9, 28);

award.Name = "Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes mit Eichenlaub, Schwerter und Brillanten";
award.PatrolsCount = 15;
award.TonnageSunk = 240000;
award.Renown = 20000;
award.DateFrom = new DateTime(1941, 9, 28);

award.Name = "Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes mit goldenem Eichenlaub, Schwerter und Brillante";
award.PatrolsCount = 20;
award.TonnageSunk = 300000;
award.Renown = 30000;
award.DateFrom = new DateTime(1944, 12, 29);

award.Name = "U-Boot-Kriegsabzeichen";
award.PatrolsCount = 2;
award.Renown = 500;
award.DateFrom = new DateTime(1939, 10, 13);

award.Name = "U-Boot-Kriegsabzeichen mit Brillanten";
award.PatrolsCount = 8;
award.TonnageSunk = 200000;
award.Renown = 9000;
award.DateFrom = new DateTime(1940, 6, 3);

award.Name = "Der Kriegsorden des Deutschen Kreuzes";
award.DateFrom = new DateTime(1941, 9, 28);

2) As in the game. The only thing I took away all duplicates. Now the program displays only the first awarding of a certain reward, and the rest are ignored. And if the first award will be a knight's cross, iron crosses 2 and 1 will be added automatically.

[excel4004]

Why? Maybe just rename it? If so tell me new account name.

Sry but i dont how to rename my account name. When i try to connect with a diffderent name but the same pw for derAlte 2.0 = "You have already registered as Der Alte 2.0" When i connect with "DerAlte 2.0" i cant see a option to rename my account name.

I installed sh5 new and deleted all my old saves but they are still visible in the list?

Also i started a new campaign. My captain name: Lehmann-Willenbrock. My choice is "realistic" but when i click at my name/info it tells me: "Difficulty level - normal"!??


So, do you have the option to rename my account name to "excel4004"!?

Do you have the option to delete my old captains files (DerAlte 2.0) in the "The best captains" list!??

Thanks!

I rename your account.

You can delete your old captains by yourself



I read realistic level from your savefile. Most likely that some options are not checked. Not 100% realism game shows as "Difficulty level - normal"

[vdr1981]

Thanks for the update Warham, I love the new changes!

Maybe this is your problem...

- I checked all options but still my displayed realism percentage is 70%?
Full 100% realism settings are reserved exclusively for Real Navigation Captains who do not use auto target recognition cheat (AKA "Wind & Smoke" addon).

[excel4004]

I rename your account.

Thanks Warham!

I dont know why but after you rename my account this option works for me too and iam now able to delete this by myself.

I use this setting in game and select this values while in bunker before starting the career! Maybe you are also able to change this setting for me in KDR. Like you said Warham you read it from my savefile that iam using setting "Realistic".

Maybe you problem is related to some of the additional mods you're using , German patch or something...
Why dont you tray to remove all of them, start new campaign and see what will happen...

I tried this but its the same, so all my mods are not the problem.

I know now whats the problem - in my opinion a bug.

You can select "Realistic" at start screen, you can select "Realistic" in the bunker before starting a career but in KSD you will always see the option you selected at the beginning of the campaign when you choose the missions!

So after i also selected in mission screen "Realistic" its also visible in KSD.


By the way, thanks for the new features in KSD Warham.

[excel4004]

Warham,

I do not see one, or iam blind.


Thanks!

I intentionally did not add the photos of the most successful captains. But just for you and adrians69, I'll make an exception You (only you) need to redownload archive.

[vdr1981]

Warham, can you somehow put into use information about the number of used torpedoes per patrol?

How about adding some bonuses/penalties for captains who use/do not use real navigation, wind & smoke addon, external views, map contacts ect? Some of these information are contained in the save game folder...

Do you planing any additional cool feature?
I must say again, your commander gave totally new dimension to SH5...
