Realistic Crew

Description
I've retired from modding and have uninstalled this game. Please comment to let me know this mod is out of date and I will update it as soon as possible, thanks! This does not mean I will be adding additional features. I will not be doing that. I will only be keeping it current with the latest version of the game.

What does this mod do?
Changes the amount of crew we're able to have. It allows up to 9 officers on the type 7 boats and up to 30 crew. There has been an adjustment made to oxygen consumption to compensate for the extra crew. While you can upgrade to 9 officers on the type II boats it is not recommended to do that because there are not enough beds for that many officers on those boats. If you do use 9 officers on the smaller boats that is only intended to be done for very short, half or one day patrols, not patrols that will last 2 or more days (an over night or more).

updated for v2025.1.1 Patch 4

v2025.1.1 Patch 1 is not supported.

You have to earn and unlock or cheat reputation to get more officers. It's not automatic.

Maybe when the IX is released in October we can have more than 30 crew and 9 officers. I will of course be looking at that and have plans to either update this mod or release another mod to address that when the IX class is actually here.

@Jack Schitt thank you, I i didn't plan to do actually do it, it was more of an idea to make the crew a more realistic size. That said, thank you very much, the game files will stay untouched till i will sink off the coast of argentina

@theHappyCroissant:
Yes. It would require a new save. There are not enough beds on any of the ships in the game to have more officers or crew than this mod allows. Increasing the ammounts further than this mod does leads to problems that lead to the game being unplayable. You have been warned .

Hello, quick question. If there was ever the possibility to go into the files and modify the max number of sailors to, let's say, 40 or even 50, would that require a new save? thank you

@Rodenas: Run Console Enabled , deploy it by pressing ` (Tilde/backtick) and type "Reputation 20".

How can you Cheat the reputation? (i am new to the game)
Amazing mod by the way

@Rezak: Yes. It is not save game compatible. We need to start a new game with this already enabled when the game starts to use it.

hello. We need starting new game?

I don't have a lot of time in playing this game. We might have to earn reputation and upgrade to more officers again when we change boats.

no no not at all, it was working flawlessly but when i switched it just broke. i had the modded officer count and the modded crew count. so idk why i would not fix it. but who knows. just FYI it broke when i used the option "choose another boat" in the warehouse.
