Hi all, I've created a mod/utility to allow you to rearrange ships into a different OOB structure. This mod has not been extensively tested, so please report any bugs you find to me. (In fact, even reporting that you used it without a bug would be nice feedback!)
Instructions: 1. Extract zip to any location you'd like
2. Run RtW_Fleet_Editor.exe 3. Open a battle file (e.g. RtWGame1.sac) 4. I recommend saying "Yes" to backup the save
5. Edit the fleets: - Drag and drop ships to different divisions - move divisions to different forces - edit the location and course of divisions (will reset to Line Ahead formation) - toggle forces and divisions between AI and manual control
6. Save the file, likely overwriting the same file (RtWGame1.sac)
The .sac file is created when you exit the Battle. Use-case of this mod is - enter a battle - save & exit - use mod to edit savegame - open RtW to open edited save
[DOWNLOAD]
v1.1.5
[OTHER REQUIREMENTS] .NET Framework [ Download Link] (4.7.2 or later -- might already be installed)
Sample image:
Best, Tortuga

This should be stickied. This should also be posted in the main forum. This should be part of the main game. Tortuga, NEVER record another YouTube RTW2 game series without 1st getting v1.25 and using a darker eye theme. My eyes!!!!
Thanks for this!

<snip> That’s your opinion. And yes, it’s counter to mine. Do you agree with me that we are both entitled to an opinion on this forum, or are you saying my feelings on the matter should be invalidated? <snip> If you don’t know what I’m talking about, why did you open with an attempt to invalidate my opinion? I’m certainly confused. Since I’m confused by your post, perhaps you are as well so I’ll explain. YouTube videos on RTW are difficult to watch, and play, because the screen is white with tiny black text. Yes, that’s an opinion. But there has been a growing chorus that echoes that sentiment that we need a softer eye theme. Such as it is, v1.25 patch has been released and included within is a color control allowing us to change the text and background, something many of us have been asking for. Tortugapower’s vids may now benefit from this new patch, hence my above post asking him to use it because I like his content, dislike the eye strain, again, an opinion no more or less in value to your own, but shared by many. Why else would the deva have released a color control if not for people complaining about it, so in totality, it wasn’t really fine, was it, Enderminion?

Hi all, In honor of the recent Dark Mode edition to Rule the Waves (hurrah!), I have added Dark Mode to my OOB Editor. (Also a QoL fix to adding divisions, even if you don't care about dark mode.)
Dark mode example:
Cheers, Tortuga
edit: for reference, this is v1.1.5

Hey Tortugapower, OOB Editor crashes while loading a sac file. Battle is Austria vs France pretty early during the game. The error is that the key as not found in the dictionary. Attaches is the save and the crash log. best rekrats Attachments:RTWGame2.rar (17.27 KB)

Thank you rekrats . Sending the error log was above and beyond! However, I was able to open the battle file successfully on my end. My suspicion is that this is a localization issue. Would you mind sending the savegame folder? If it's too big, even just one or two of the ship design files involved in this fight (like Budapest.20d & Panther.20d). My script opens the ship design files to get the ship speeds and types, so having a sample will allow me to check into this further. Cheers, Tortuga

Can i suggest you add the class and (importantly) the speed to each ship on the list.
I like it when all the ships in a division have the same speed.

Hi cabalamat , are the ship class and speed not shown for you? Both should appear when you select a ship.
If not, if you can send the savegame to me, I can test it.
Also, if you find it cumbersome to attach here, feel free to email me at tortugapoweryt@gmail.com
Cheers, Tortuga

Hi tortuga, I just wanted to thank you for the work you do. While I haven't used your auto-resolve battle thingy much, this one I have used quite a few times and it is sooo useful!
So again, thank you very much!

I've not tried your fleet editor yet, I was merely going by the screenshot you posted.
I may add it to my mod manager (with your permission of course).

Of course. Anyone can rehost this file as they like. Although... It might be best to place it there only after some of these bugs are ironed out.
So I've tried it now and i get an error message, when i try to load the sac file (the <fed.txt> file is the error log):
I will look into this based on the error log (which is great, thank you). It will be helpful for me to see the savegame file that caused this crash, as well. (At your convenience, if it's not too much trouble.)
Best, Tortuga
