thanks!

Onlyest problem that I can see, that shipayrd dont have enough free tonage capacity to start conersion, then expandng of shipyrds will hepl (but only after expansion is repaired to size allowing conversion).

As far as I understand, upgrades are automatic, and conversions are not.

Status: offline 		Need to be in Tokyo, and I think you need to expand the shipyard. IIRC, this is a conversion, not an upgrade, so you need to click on the conversion: CVL highlight, then click on the convert button at the bottom left.

Status: offline 		Alright, I just went into the game and checked on scen #1. It is an upgrade, so be sure to pick "Yes". You need to have a minimum shipyard size of 50. And for the Chiyoda and Chitose you need to be in Tokyo.

Status: offline 		they are at Tokyo, however repair shipyard is only 10 and i think i need 50+ ??.  no buttons to press to convert. Hope it doesn't take too long to build up the repair yard as it almost a year long conversion anyway!

If the shipyard is currently size 10, it will take 40 days to make it to size 50.

The Chitose and Chiyoda things are weird because they need to be in Tokyo. The only way to know that is by asking on the Forum. There is nothing in the manual about it.

Status: offline 		Are you actually sure you even want to convert? THe CS's are actually invaluable for naval search when in a CV TF. By converting they are out a long time _and_ you only get mediocre CV's back -at best.
