SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - View Single Post - Looking for a way to force transfer with save edit

Ahoy captains! I'm looking for some help with my current career. I started in Manila, got changed to Surabaya, and ultimately took new command of the USS Drum and was sent to Pearl. Now, I probably shouldn't have taken that new sub since my intent was to stick around the Solomons/Bismark for the Guadalcanal campaign and go from there, but that new sub was too tempting. I didn't have an issue with it at first. I just thought that I'd do a few "quick" patrols and get transferred to Brisbane by August. Well, it's now close to the end of Dec 1942, and I still haven't been offered any transfer.

I've edited my saves to change my objectives from Honshu to Solomon/Bismark area, but I'm getting tired of the week and a half long journey to get there. So now comes the point of my post: is there any way to edit a transfer into the CarreerTrack.upc file? I've tried changing my "CurrentFlotilla" and "CurrentFlotillaBase" entries to "Brisbane" and "BrisbaneCommand" (perhaps these are incorrect), and the game CTD after starting the patrol. I'm hoping some of you fine skippers might have the info I need. Or, barring that, can anyone that has a CareerTrack.upc save with a transfer on record share that file info with me?

Thanks and happy hunting!
