[REQ] Cavite or Manila?

No, for careers you'd need the lat/long and it would need to be added to either careerstarts, or flotillas in the UPCData folder.

The way you'd do that is to place a single ship where you want the sub to start, complete with waypoint and heading, then copy those values into the upc file.

Flotillas.upc is the file.

Code:

[Flotilla 2.Base 1]
ID= Manila
NameDisplayable= Cavite Naval Base, Manila, Philippines
ExternalBaseName=Manila
AvailabilityInterval= NULL, 1941-12-23
DepartureDescription1= 14517308, 1746167, 267.488647
DepartureDescription2= 14517861, 1744261, 0
DepartureDescriptionOut1= 14449908, 1711216, 276.175903

;[Flotilla 2.Base 2]
;ID= Corregidor
;NameDisplayable= Mariveles, Corregidor Fortress, Philippines
;AvailabilityInterval= 1941-12-25, 1941-12-30
;DepartureDescription1= 13888096.0, -3846897.0, 269.614990 ; Enum of available points, choose one randomly each time a patrol is started

Interestingly, Corregidor is commented out. No sign of Cavite.

Thanks Tater,

Wasn't quite sure as far as careers go.

Great photo!

Cheers

It would be nice to get Mariveles in there as a regular Asiatic Fleet base, because it was used for submarine operations for the balance of December 1941. Maybe tweak the starting dates to have the player's home base switch from Cavite to Mariveles on the 24th of December, giving them time to sortie from there before the evacauation to Java.
