Reports and renown

Hi John,

are you sure about the renown and that sending messages has no influence? IIRC, at least in basic.cfg there is a value for sending a contact report and there is also a parameter in airstrike.cfg concerning sending messages.

I think I tested both (years ago) and concluded they work, but I'm not sure anymore. Maybe test again with large values to be sure. And keep in mind you have to be in range of an airbase! I think for other units than planes from an airbase it does not work/matter.

And concerning contact reports: I think you only get the renown once per detected convoy and also only if you detect it (not contacting a convoy that has been already reported/shown on the map)!

Best, LGN1
