The Stock game uses that 4 Feb date as the active date, and it will then assign the boat as early as November of 1942 in stock, as a "reward" (HAH!!!). In FotRSU, we pushed that "active" date back further, to May, and the game will still assign the boat up to 3 months earlier... We even put missions in the game so you no longer CTD when that happens, ~but~ it will not assign you the Flotilla, because the boat is not "active"... sigh "Eetsah catch-ah twenty-two-ah"... rassin rother $%&# game...
....and so, it is the early assignment as a reward for high performance that is causing the problem?

...because we can manipulate dates in the Roster and Sea files but we cannot prevent the game from early assignment.
