Hull Integrity number

We will look into creating a variation of the hull integrity indicator that gives a general impression but nothing specific... as you say, "good, fair, poor, critical."

I do not yet know if this can be done... if it can we will. As far as discussing how much percentage = what damage lavel... discussion isn't necessary. I'll just make an executive decision and save a load of time.

However, the exact percentage number will not return to the GWX default installation itself... that's just too "Star Trekky!" The whole idea behind it is to keep you guessing.
Individual players who want to sail using the exact percentage will need to add it back in... simple affair really.

You still do get an impression of how bad off your U-boat is based on components destroyed etc... and honestly... one lucky DC can ummm "end your mission" shall we say.

Knowing too much removes the "fear factor."

Removing the fear factor = BOREDOM!!!

Awesome!

Thanks for your considering the idea. And I agree about the 'fear factor', too . . . which GWX has added to quite nicely! --shudders, mentally replaying several recent frisky escort attacks in my mind--
