    Default [RELEASED] Ported Sinking Ships minisubmod

    In vanilla Empire Total War, and all mods exept my Sinking ships mod, ships sink when they are 10% underwater. (10% counting the sails). Yet, this number is really low to me. I think that the captain didn't evacuate the ship because there is some water in it. He would rather do anything to save the ships, and if he can't, continue the fight untill the gunpowder gets wet.

    I raised this value to 90% in my first mod, then 40%. But these values were still too high creating many bugs, and ships that were fully underwater continued to fight.. That was funny yet !

    I tested it for personnal use at 30%, I liked it but there were still minor issues (a rank of cannon underwater and still firing !) so I decided to port it lowering this number to only 20%.
    Now ships sink when they are 20% filled with water which seems to be a more reasonable value.

    How did I edit it ? In ship stats, thresold_to_sink from 0,1 to 0,2


    HOW TO INSTALL ?

    Add :
    mod "sinkingships.pack"; in the top of your user.script in Empire Total War/Data/IS folder

    Put :
    sinkingships.pack in your Empire Total War/Data folder

    HOW TO UNINSTALL ?

    Remove :
    mod"sinkingships.pack"; from the top of your user.script
    sinkingships.pack from your Empire Total War/Data folder

    And could you please get it changed to 4500, but that it should support Darthmodu. Also, to me more like a ship in vanilla, I mean, those colors by nationality. British - yellow, French - white etc. As I know, the vanilla all ships were only wooden, had no color, just so little balustrades. It can also return to you please? Because I do not know.

    This submod is for Imperial Splendour, you can find the vanilla version in the mod threads.
    I do not have enough time to port it to Darthmod right now

    If you are using Darthmod and you want realism, you need to seriously re- evaluate your choices. This is a lot like a vegan asking for bacon bits in his/ her salad.
