I think you're going to have a problem with this part too. As far as I know, either all Japanese flagged vessels will be hostile, or none will. You can't have some that will follow the surrender orders and some that won't. The only option there is to have ONLY the few Jap ships that won't surrender be available in your traffic.

I'm aware of this.Would just put a few Japanese ships around the Pacific, they will be hostile.

Is there an actual 'end date'? I was always under the impression that at the end of the war all nations became neutral. If you set up a mission in 1946 I'm pretty sure all ships are neutral and won't attack. So, the end of the war would just be a scripted radio message no? Everything else carries on and the countries just don't fire on one another (unless you fire first).

EDIT: For a mixed bag of hostile and non hostile Japanese ships, you could set up a new nationailty - Hostile Japan and have them sail around.

I always wondered why nobody ever did that when setting up a group of ships for target practice. Just add another nationality. 'Though, for the Japanese, you could also do it the other way 'round ... keep the original fleet as hostile and add "Defeated Japanese" as the new nationality.
