Chance of an Expansion?

##Removed SubmarineTypes (it will be added in the addon)

Thats just something written by a programmer for unknown reasons, there was no grand "evil" strategy behind it. In particular, we were toying with the idea to allow access to some campaigns based on current submarine type (Drumbeat only for type IXs and VIIs, for example) but that went out of the window when he had to dropped all sub types except the type VII... so the guy had to remove that part.

That is not left over from SH3 or SH4 as they did not have any python scripts.

Didn't mean all is... I'm just pointing out that properly done code allows easier upgrading and use for future products. The reality is that people demand and should get more with each product, otherwise they say "but I already have SH3 and now its polished and modded and very cool" and it is true. So you have to bring something new on top of that, but if you rewrite everything from zero, it becomes too much to chew...

Planning ahead is great if your Bosses actually let you build an addon.
I and many others hope you get the chance!

I know Jeff, thanks for this and all else you do
