Ducimus, the modder who put TMO together decided to have an optional flag in TMO. Maybe RFB did too because I see that LukeFF was active in this.

During the War, US boats didn't fly a flag while on patrol. Some may have in Home Port between patrols, and one boat laid their flag out on the forward deck so they wouldn't get bombed by friendly fire while picking up someone in very shallow water close to shore.

I don't know about SH3 but I think Anvart made a flag mod for it.

This link will tell you about flags using the Gato.eqp file as an example:

In \Data\Submarines, each boat has an eqp file. Here is the end of the Gato.eqp file:
\Data\Submarine\NSS_Gato\ :

NSS_Gato.eqp :

[Equipment 18]
NodeName=I07
LinkName=NSS_TBT_base_aft
StartDate=19410101
EndDate=19600631

[Equipment 19]
NodeName=I08
LinkName=SubFlag_US
StartDate=19410101
EndDate=19600631

;[Equipment 19]
;NodeName=I08
;LinkName=SubFlag_Pirate
;StartDate=19410101
;EndDate=19600631

Look in /Data/Library for flag.dat

Flags:

The flags go in:

Sadly, there is no Lithuanian flag. My ancestors on part of my Dad's side came to the US from Memel, Prussia, (now Klaipėda) in the late 1800's. Lithuania was occupied by the Soviet Union (1940–1941), Nazi Germany (1941–1944), and the Soviet Union again in 1944 - 1999.... (pick a flag, or be a rebel and fly your own : )

I don't fly a flag.

Happy Hunting!
