The main options screen is for single missions or war patrols only.

To set options for a career you must set them with the radio in the office before you start a patrol. Click on the radio on the left side of the office screen and it will open the career options screen.

Seems you took on a Sen Toku I-400-class jap sub. Seems TMO and RSRD may have a basic non working version of this sub that you will find only in ports, so I don't think a non working version gives any credit for sinking. Newer versions of TMO do have other working AI jap subs that do travel the seas and you can sink and get credit.

The is a mod for the Sen Toku that you can add, however I don't think it would be included in the traffic for TMO. I don't think sub classes have a generic setting for traffic and I don't think Duci ever added the working Sen. The only way you could add it is install the Sen mod and add it to the traffic layers yourself, easy to do.

I've always used RSRD, but recently started playing TMO without and and like what Duci has done with the traffic, it's not historic like RSRD, but more realistic zigs, speeds and AI reaction. He uses many generic settings for ships, so it's very easy to install other ships, I've installed over a dozen and they show up in traffic per class at random, no need to add traffic layers, but again, I doubt he set any subs to generic, but used a specific class, certainly wouldn't want to spawn midget subs at random.

Hmmm, must have been a government project. I'll look into this at the end of this patrol.
