I raised the "floor" for Commander to six and twenty for Captain because promotions were too soon and too easy to obtain before.
Upgrade to new sub appears to be dependent on
1. Next Class (So if have a Gato, next in line is a Balao)
2. Availability date of next class. So if have a Gato...next in line is a Balao, which becomes available in June 1943)
3. Career rating of player (internal number assigned by the sim based on performance on patrols)
4. Player Renown
5. Promotion or eligible for promotion appears to be linked with upgrade in some cases.
The stars have to be aligned so to speak, or somewhat aligned, but there is no guarantee for upgrade.

RenownAwarded= 360 Is it directly related?
