Lack of Hull Integrity on the crew management screen?

Yes, that's a 'feature' of NYGM imported from its predecessor RUb (Beery's Real U-boat).

The presence or absence of this item on the screen has been the subject of much discussion. Some say that the crew would not know of the extent of hull damage during depth-charging (true). Others counter-argue that the crew would have a good idea of hull damage after they surfaced and inspected the hull (also true).

There is no middle solution. I personally would prefer to see the hull damage shown, but was outvoted by other NYGM team members.

If you want an easy fix, find your file:
silenthunteriii\data\menu\en_menu.txt
then scroll down to the command "589=".
Change this to "589=HULL INTEGRITY %s %" (without the quotes).

[I hope you can read the line above OK. The right-hand entries are meant to be percentage signs. On my screen, they look like '96'. Best thing is to cut-and-paste from this post.]

Don't forget to make a back-up copy of the original en_menu.txt file first.
