- instant reload (for the guns only)

File edition cheats
Open your "My Documents" folder. Then go to this sub folder: \SH3\data\cfg\Careers\[your profile name]. It contains many files related to your career, which you can edit with a text editor (like notepad or Notepad++). NB: for the cheats to work, you must be in the base.
- to get renown points, edit the latest line starting with "DeltaRenown=" in the Patrols_0.cfg file (change it to the amount of renown points you want). For instance replace "DeltaRenown=1500.000000" with "DeltaRenown=9500.000000".
- to edit your crew, open the latest file which has a name startting with "Crew_Career_". For instance you can edit:
- the name: Name
- the morale (0 to 1, higher is better): Morale
- the fatigue (0 to 1, lower is better): Fatigue
- the qualifications: Qualification0, Qualification1 and Qualification2. Note that officers may have up to 3 qualifications, petty officers can only have one, and other crew can't have any. The possible qualifications are[4]:
- 0 - Watchman
- 1 - Gunner
- 2 - Flak Gunner
- 3 - Radioman
- 4 - Helmsman
- 5 - Machinist
- 6 - Torpedoman
- 7 - Medic
- 8 - Repairman
- Editing the file should be quite straightforward, here is a sample crew member (an officer in this case):
