Default Rockin Robbins EZPlot 2.0

Announcing the first universal plotting mod plugin: EZPlot 2.0! Installed on top of any supermod, it restores the stock plotting system for every ship in every mod. (disclaimer: RFB and RFB/RSRDC coming soon in EZPlot 2.1) It will still work fine with RFB and RFB/RSRDC but some ships, not many, will still plot in the RFB way.

There's a problem with Silent Hunter 4 modders. Making a nice improvement to the game, they mess up other people's mods or the stock game itself. You load up RSRDC, just an example with LOTS of company) on top of TMO and yes, you get all the campaign mod you wanted, but TMO is utterly destroyed in the process, with different AI, different sensors, Duci's evil airplanes are nerfed and a couple dozen other unannounced sneaky, and in my opinion, dishonest destructions of your intended game.

So I'm introducing a new concept, the Universal Mod Plugin. There are four now, EZplot 2.0, StocKeys, TMOKeys and GFOKeys. When you load up a Universal Mod Plugin, you can be sure that NO aspect of the game is changed except what you installed the mod for in the beginning. You don't have to install in port, you can install in the middle of an approach if you want and a Universal Mod Plugin will JUST WORK!

I suggested this concept back in 2009 and was just about laughed right out of the SH4 Modding Forum. If I don't do it, it won't be done. With me, you don't have to worry that I'll exceed my limitations, for limitations are all I have to work with! Maybe I'm the perfect guy to make this work.

This is the first universal plotting plugin: EZPlot 2.0. This takes all forms of the game, stock, stock/RSRDC, GFO, GFO.RSRDC, TMO, TMO/RSRDC and FOTRS (recently reposted on Subsim downloads), replacing their plotting system with the stock plotting system. It turns TMO into TMO with Training Wheels! Every ship in every mod will plot correctly. There are more than double the ships in EZPlot 2.0 as there were in 1.0.

Just install with JSGME after the supermod. Bearing plotters won't interfere.

Version 2.1 with RFB and RFB/RSRDC coming soon!

Everyone has the right to copy, use, adapt, steal, borrow, fold, spindle and mutilate this mod as their perverted heart desires.

As a certified plugin mod by Rockin Robbins, I pledge that this mod makes NO CHANGES to your game outside of the plotting system. It can be installed or uninstalled any time, not just in port and it just works.
