That can be done too. Using the Silent Editor, just open the .zon files in the Submarine folders. Open the file of the sub you wish to edit. Within each selection is a damage zone labeled as a sphere or box. All you need to do is edit the ArmorLevel in each sphere and box selection. If you exceed 100, the armor becomes impervious to all weapons fire. Armor with a 100 rating can still be damaged, but small rounds fire will do virtually no damage to the hull so long as it isn't excessive.

it has been since sh3 and gwx1.1 the last time i did any real modding attempts so just how detailed can you get with that?

can you say make just the attack periscope 10% tougher to damage without effecting anything else?

Yes. I had a periscope problem at one time but after some trial and error, I was able to figure out the mechanics behind it.
