What is a KSQ ?

Elder-Pirate · 04-19-07, 11:22 AM

After returning to base I see this in my log. I have not found any such ship/aircraft/whatever in the Museum but I've been wrong before. Any one know what a KSQ is ?

Search Aircraft ?

I don't know, and I don't quite understand the "code" used in these patrol logs. Another area I would like to see improved on.

Probably a airplane. Possible the Kate.

It's a bug. Theres acutally two types of names for ships. Theres the computer name, that the game uses on the backend, and then theres the english name that you see in game. Take a look in the sh4/data/sea directory, and then take a look at the sh4/data/roster/names.cfg file and you'll see what i mean.

I dont't know about SH4, but in SH3 KSQ is the code used for a tramp steamer. Shouldn't you actually know what it was that you sank?

Looks like a plane flying with all those other planes.

OK here it is right where you said ( sh4/data/roster/names.cfg file) KSQ=Coastal Composite Freighter

Another UBI cover up.

Thanks Ducimus.
