+1000000 for more merchants. That would probably be the best add-on.

The most needed merchant, IMHO, are the very very small ones. 1000 tons and under.

Fox Tare, Steel Sea Trucks, and Wooden Sea Trucks. There were so many different variants in RL, that 1 real one, with variants done via masts, stacks, and slight deckhouse changes would do for each type and create possibly dozens of targets. As coast-hugging craft, they also frequently got hardcore camouflage for protection from air attack, too, which could be possible as well:

second patrol, after having scouted two areas, i'm free in the Celebes sea. February 14 , 1942

cruising next to the coastline near Jolo, spotted a minesweeper, followed it at flank speed on the surface to try and gun her down...

and stumbled across this :

she was rejoining a convoy ! dozens of small cargo ships...

as it was heading away from me at 9 knots, I could only cry...

and what I meant by swaping parts is, if the part doesnt look like the pic, i can alter it, or build a new one. And yes, I'm well aware, about making seperate objects from the ship mesh.

I just realized that I only redid the hull. I will send you another copy with the rest of the ship reworked, sorry.

I took a look at her in game, but the texture didn't map and I didn't have time to figure out why. I looked at the model in S3D, and whatever differences there were were pretty subtle.

Note that hull is NOT from a real kaibokan, but it's the stock game minesweeper, which was the closest I had

Yea, the difference is suttle, because I only did the hull, and did you import the wireframe with materials, because if you did, uncheck use materials. When I'm done with the rest of ship I will send it to you.

I didn't import anything, you sent me a dat.

Also, there is no use doing anything to "my" kaibokan as it is the wrong hull in the first place. Like I said, it's a Minesweeper, I just moved stuff around in S3D to make it look like a kaibokan a little.

I was showing you the hull 3d body reworked to give it a better apperance. but i get you.

Yeah, but if a real one is forthcoming, don't waste your time was really my point—why have a better fake one
