Patrol Report Template etc

Bubblehead1980 · 03-03-25, 10:49 AM

Hello all,

After a hiatus I am back, working on updating my mod for TMO. Going well thus war, have 12 patrols from January 1943-December 1944 in testing. Pleased to say not many problems. Upon reaching the end, will run through Pre-war 1941-December 1942 and if same results, should not be too long until release.

Anyways, something more people used to do is share patrol reports and screenshots, read about others experiences. I will admit unless its something extraordinary I am not the best about taking screenshots (timing thing, don't want to stop in middle of action to take shot or to set it up) or if I do, they do not always capture the way I hoped.

Some may have noticed I post a patrol report in the forum after each patrol and try to follow the format of real patrol reports
(located here https://maritime.org/doc/subreports.php).

Wondering if anyone with the requisite knowledge/abilities could create
a patrol report template where it's easy to fill in the information. I would like to follow the format of BARB patrols 8-12 under LCDR/CDR (later Admiral) Eugene Fluckey, see link below.

If possible, would like the old typewriter paper look of the actual reports.

Much as real commanders and crews did, players can learn a lot from the reports, I know way back when I was a noob at SH 4, I certainly did and have continued to. This would make it easier for people to share experiences etc. Just an idea. Thanks in advance.

Being your playing a Game that is set in the 1940's?
Why would one need an old paper look? Wasn't the paper New back then?
