Mod Request--or info on one already available

Has anyone made a mod that gets neutral ships into the game? I really miss the suspense-generating effect of having to ID a target before I can safely attack it. At night in bad weather, having to get right on top of a ship before I can see what flag it is flying. Looking in the Museum, it appears that Neutral countries don't have any merchants or warships at all.

Which begs the question--I see there are no unit addons at all for this game in the download section. The game has been out long enough, I fear that must mean that it can't be done. Say it ain't so.

But still, couldn't someone add existing ships to the non-combatant countries and do some kind of scripting fix so that they will be detected by my crew? I remember there was such a mod for SH4 which fixed a similar problem by making there be No Neutral countries. Ships of all nations not friendly were made hostile. That would be better than this.

If I'm not in home waters, I hardly bother about flags. I just kill the ship 'cause I know it's British.
