The original date was 19411207. I used the 2nd because that's when your first patrol starts in PPH.



Are you maybe considering an addon, a complete redo, or is this strictly for personal use only?

Thanks.Makes sense(the DefSide.cfg)



Well I am in process of doing an upgrade to the RSRD campaign for TMO for release. Major part of mod is adding traffic to dead zones(some shipping lanes are missing traffic) tweaking composition of certain convoys and task forces since more ships are available that were not when last version of RSRD were release. Example...have Akagi and Kaga carriers from FOTRS which work fine with TMO RSRD. Additional merchants , escorts, patrol craft etc. Added guard patrols in key areas missing from RSRD.Have traffic for 1944 and 45 complete, testing and tweaking now but nearly finished. Working on 1942 and 43 currently.

Considering making it where starting career Oct/Nov 41 as an option in the upgrade, so add on. Get some "peacetime" patrols in but reflecting the tensions of the time.Having where most japanese forces wont attack but perhaps occasional one that will if encountered. Some specialized cold war type missions could be created. Recon certain harbors, observe shipping etc. Had.Then enter war on December 7.Would require writing some new orders for earlier, adding things needed as well traffic.Believe could add a lot, give some variety.

Any chance of a non-TMO version? I don't use that, just RSRD.
