I added the various Gato conning towers. I will add the rest later. There was text in the file to accompany the upgrades, I added a bit on to it. Not sure if it's accurate.

Some inconsistancies in the data. The Late War and the Elite are both available on December 1st, 1942. Error or intentional? Maybe the Elite one is something you get if you sink a certain amount of tonnage? I dunno, just guessing.

Anyone who has the Elite conning that can confirm when it was upgraded?

EDIT: I love some of the stuff they left in here.

I've added the rest of the conning tower upgrades for every sub. You know, I could really use a little assistance in clarifying precisely how the conning tower upgrades work and confirmation that all my data is correct. If it's not correct, it's not doing anyone any good. I'm not a programmer and definately not that great with variables and what not. I've only taken the data I found for descriptions, I'm not that famliar with subs in the Pacific, so historic info would be appreciated as well.

The idea in posting this list was to have it for reference, since the game doesn't have an ingame tech tree like SH3 did. I've been using mods from here since SH3 and I thought it would be nice if I could give a little something back to the community by posting this list, apparently I was wrong. Over 100 views and only a single comment? Real sense of community around here guys.

I've had my gato conning tower upgraded before. It just happened with a text message saying the boat was upgraded. I had no choice in the matter.

Thank you. Updated.

One Question out of interest:

What (I suppose technical) reasons kept the US Navy from mounting bow AND stern guns to the fleet boats for so long?

I don't know myself. Be interesting to know, though.

Game wise, I'm still trying to find where the info on what sub can mount what gun at what point and whether or not it can use two guns at some point. Tricky buggers are hiding

EDIT: Found them. Updated the list.
