Default Help me id some flags.

I looked at the community manual but it doesnt seem to have all of the countries flags that are in the GW mod. Furthermore, I dont know when\if some of those countries were ever targets. Im looking at some south african ships but I have no idea if i should sink them.

If you have the GW mod, there is a pull-down chart in the upper left on the periscope/UZO views that display all the flags, plus their status and dates of status.

Hope that helps!

Wow. It helps some but im having a bit of trouble understanding it. Neutral = N is obvious, Alliierte = A I take to mean allie and Achsenmaechte = X is a mystery to me.

Achsenmaechte = Axis Powers. In other words, allies of Germany.

It confuses me at times, as I unconsciously want to equate "Allies" with allies.

I don't remember

One of the things that sucks (for me, anyway) about trying to answer questions at times is that I have to have SHIII up and running to doublecheck things, and it bites having to keep toggling back and forth from Windows to SHIII, as it takes several minutes to change from one to the other. --sighs--

And yeah as I mentioned I have the occassional senior moments and forget that the Allies are not my allies, too. Didn't Germany have their own names for that? It doesn't make sense, to me, for them to have called the Allied Powers that. Or does it?

You should start a new thread for this discussion if you want everyone to see it.

@ rcs72: I'm not absolutely sure, but I think that is a stock bug which can occur early in the war sometimes. Maybe someone else can elaborate?
