so a discussion about the respawning, is it possible to make a mod to fix the spawning issue. Also does anyone have a list of where battle ships are docked at and at what times? Also (ive said also a lot) is there a mod or is it possible to make a mod to add battle ships to scapa flow at the appropriate times and places. Its frustrating following the exact path Prein took, and finding nothing.

Not a problem. I'm just having fun. I have a bad habit of being quick to judge, quick to condemn and then quick to kick myself for being a jerk. You may have annoyed me, but you didn't do anything wrong.

The way the game spawns ships makes that pretty much impossible, though h.sie's work may change that.

It is entirely possible to script ships to be at a certain place at a certain time. This is why Tirpitz appears at Kiel in 1939 without her turrrets, and later in other places fully rigged for battle. On the other hand if you script the exact British ships into every exact place you remove any element of surprise, and the game becomes less realistic, not more. Royal Oak at Scapa Flow is probably a good exception, but only because the raid was planned by Doenitz himself using good aerial photograph. After that no British base should ever be possible to penetrate, as they took very good security measures from then on.
