WB and Evan82's XXI 1939 mod unexpected consequences.

After installing WB and Evan82's XXI 1939 mod I had some unexpected consequences.

Equipment upgrades are available in December 1940 that would not normally be...Radar, radar warning, all coatings, snorkel, all bolds and the Balkon Gerit hydrophone (interestingly, not the Nibelung hydrophone?). Of course the snorkel does not appear (in a test on my type VIIC) because the mod does not allow Turm upgrades before the regular date. Weapon's availability (deck gun, AA and torps) remains unchanged. These I can live with by just ignoring them until the correct date.

The other change is that after installing this mod, you cannot change torpedo loadouts in any sub. The default mix of T1's and T2's cannot be changed in my type VIIC. You can change the loadout in base...but it reverts to the default mix when you start the patrol.

Unless I've done something wrong, this mod should only be installed when you are actually going to use only the Type XXI at an earlier availability date.

Not a complaint by any means...just a head's up for those thinking of having some fun with the XXI in the early war years.
