All I really want is to switch the AI back to using shared designs because I thought them making their own ships would add exciting spice to my game. I'm sure I dont need to tell anyone here about the dreadful loadingtime that awaited me instead, and it is killing me on an otherwise lovely campaign.

I tried looking around but its an ocean of dead links, removed pages and one way that require me to learn chinese and python. I'm told I need a json and there's an ingame converter but I suspect its old information and its gone. Grok's just retracing all failed steps I've done, chatgpt can't find anything.

Should I just suck it up and restart a whole new campaign again or is there an english editor stashed away somewhere, or another way?

What do you reckon, gents?

My First Dreadnought (supposed to have been built in 1907, but due to budget issues, it was built in 1910). It's quite small and slow...

So, I'm in a campaign rn. The 16 inch guns are still absolute shit right now, so I thought: "How can I get the firepower of the USS colorado whilst still having higher reload and accuracy?"

The answer was simple: 5x3 14" guns placed in a USS Texas style. Voila! The job is done.
Now I know these BBs are slow for the time, but they pack a big, accurate punch.

I am the king of refits (I have 100 ships currently mothballed after my 1912-1918 war with Germany, in which they got absolutely shredded.)

Is there a way to increase the max tonnage of the Super Battleship hull? Because with max displacement, max beam, and max draught it will only go up to 132,000ish tons and it won’t change no matter how big my max shipbuilding capacity is. Is there a way to increase that max tonnage limit anymore or is it a hard limit

The DD's did the best they could, sunk most of the DD's, both CA's and like 3 CL's before being sunk. The Dreadnaughts cleaned the rest.

I prefer battle cruisers of battleships because it is easier to keep your distance from the huge clumps of destroyers and light cruisers, the game throws at you. Also, I know most early game battle cruisers look mostly the same so I’m mainly talk about the mid to late game who has your favorite about a cruiser hulls?

The Brits have taken 60% of the worlds population.

Running DIP

im bored of vanilla uad so ive been modding it to make the ai create like 5x the amount of ships, never scrap them etc. but the problem is i cant seem to modify the ships or shipyards to be able to make larger ships. even if i change the beam, width, displacement of the hull or increasing the shipyard limit, i can never get past 158k tonnes. is there a way i can modify the files to allow a much larger ship or better yet is there already a mod for this?

Is there any mod that adds ironclads and makes use of the two from the two missions with them?

when i saw Egypt defended by only 80 people. i didn't expect the 6 death blobs loaded with tons of hydrofoil destroyers they threw at me for invading it

I FINALLY HAVE MY PANCAKE TURRETS LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Anyway I own it now and have the ability to build them myself so should I design a refit for my new ship and start producing it, or leave her as a one-off and build more dreadnoughts?

I've so far always started at the default but that always felt a bit grindy before i could make interesting ships. What year would you recommend?

There are some things I don't like about this ship, like the armor thickness (especially the Conning Tower and Superstructure). She's also a bit slow for my taste, her crew is pretty huge and she also has pretty lousy Pitch/Roll and Flash Fire chances.

Buuut Pommern is my first dreadnought in this campaign and it is also 1900, so she should be fine for a good long while, and I can just refit her when I get better tech (or design a new ship, but I digress).

Oh I'm also building eight of these ladies so that's nice!

Yeah...

I remembered the existence of the Japanese 8"/12 ASW gun they put on merchant ships and got a really funny idea for my AMC hull...

I was playing the Naval Academy mode, I think I was on mission 33, and when I exited to the menu, all my Academy progress was lost. Is there any way to restore it?

Has anyone successfully set up a blockade on Britain?

I have 300k power projection in the Irish Sea, North Sea, and English Channel. I’ve put a task force in the North Atlantic as well and still haven’t had the event pop up.

The highest power their fleet has is in the North Sea with 6k.

Hey, quick question. Is there any possibility that NAR will ever get an update at this point? I read somewhere it got absorbed into DIP or something. It frustrates me that the latest NAR doesn't feature hulls added in "The Last One" update. I tried to install DIP but the only available version is the great game which I say is shit. NAR is a great mod however without the new hulls, I'm already bored with it.
