Just open the appropriate .sim file for the boat you want to edit. I haven't looked to see what fields would need to be changed in S3d - been using it for other stuff

The other tool you can use it NvDrifter's great MiniTweaker. It (with tweakfiles) can be found here:

If using the Minitweaker - open the relevant .sim file and under either diesel or electric propulsion (depending on which your wanting to change) - just modify the MilesSurfaced/MilesSubmerged to equal what you want the max range to be, then set knotsSurfaced/knotsSubmerged to be the "most" economical speed - this speed will go the max distance - the miles specified above it. Any other speed will give you less distance.

Dont forget to make backup copies of files before ya edit! Enjoy and good luck!

Thanks for your help. This should keep me busy for a while.

Thanks again,
Tony1
