Perfect, welcome aboard sir. Did you ever get to serve on diesels at all if oyu odn't mind me asking?
One thing you'll definitely be able to help with is pinning down orders. We will have to make a few compromises to fit in with the game's sound file/trigger system but I want to keep it as spot on as possible.
The first file for the mod, the klaxon, has been released here (it's the prototype and improvements will be made)
