Are you maybe using Random ship tonnage in SH3 Commander?

with my program i am now able to analyze the whole Sea-folder and the subfolders and create a pdf recognition manual of all 208 ships (not only merchants) in about 5 minutes or so, but there remain some little problems which i willl solve in the next days.

the biggest problem is, that until now the ships unfortunately are sorted in alphabetically order and not sorted by nation as in the sh3-ingame-recog-manual. this is, because i don't know where i can find the configuration file for the sh3-ingame-recog-manual, that determines the nation and the order of the ships.....

and where is determined, wheather a ship is a merchant or a warship?? i need this information to create a recog-manual only for merchants......

has anyone an idea???

Merchants are type=100 through to 103, example UnitType=103
Coastal are type=104

The above found on both cfgs for the unit
The Roster folder contains individual countries
A cfg has to be in there for the ship to show for a certain country

The SH3 ID manual lumps all merchants in together
Not by nation
Only warships are seperated so

thank you, BBW.

now i can build ID-manuals, sorted by ship category.

what categories would make sense??

the most important one surely is "merchants".

but does it make sense to sort ships by nation as in SH3???

perhaps better to sort by type (destroyer/cruiser/battleship)??

what do the experts say??
