i had a look at the shippack files, and i would like to point out one thing that got me puzzled.
-the german and RN destroyers are 120 km/hour fast... seems a bit fast to me, i venture a guess of a max speed of 50 to 55 km/h? I could look up speeds in no time....
I have a request
can you rename the Carrier0 to GrafZeppelin?
can you rename the Carrier1 to CVEGeneric?
Otherwise, i can only say good job, i especially appreciate the Armament of the cargoes! :!:
For importing new ship in game you need to know Java but that's the easy part and I can import new ship for you.
For the rest you only need to edit hier.him files and add new ship in ini files. Check structure of ShipPack and you will see how to do it. In new ShipPack there will be 5 generic slots for advanced users who will be able to use these slots for their new ships without doing anything in Java code.
You are correct about speeds, I made a mistake there. I overlooked a fact that speed in technics.ini is half of max. speed , I thought that this is max. speed.
As you are trying to do something yourself than your request is my command. Here is how to change the names of ships.
1. Find technics_ru.properties file. It should be in Il2/Mods/xxx/i18n folder
xxx is name of some of basic mods folders, this is different for every user.
2. Find section # --- [Ships] --- , you will see a list of ships there
3. Add something like this
Carrier0 Whatever 110G Wants
4. Go to Il2,open FMB and enjoy.
