Q: if yes do I need to put in one for each potential Player
Yes. When players join, they will be assigned U-boats 1, 2, 3 in the order that you placed them.

Q: assuming Yes then I Can set them up to spawn in close
formation simultaneously Yes?
Yes. Although if they are less than 300m apart, there will be a warning when you validate the mission. However, it is only a warning, and can be ignored. Note that starting them too close can lead to problems, if one player decides to suddenly turn/accelerate/whatever.

Quote:
Q: Uberboot mod is heavily modified configs and dats.
will we be able to play online?
Yes, but only if all players have the same mods and dats. If not, the player's session will drop out on start up.

Quote:
Q: all players must have same Datafile/mods to work?
Yes.

Any help would be apprecitated especially tips and
suggestions beyond these questions.
If you are building missions, then you may want to check the Mission Editor Users Guide. The latest version of this document is v1.0, and is available from http://3rdflotilla.org/resources/sh3...editor_v10.pdf
