Good luck and happy hunting in the Nautilus.

There are 7 Text files (.txt) for each scenario. You will find them in the Scenario folder of your PC's saved folders for the game. You can copy them from the original scenario, and modify easily as necessary. I have attached (I hope) one of those files I use for my modification of scenario #6. I have saved this mod as my Scenario #40.

Attachment (1)

I was beta-testing it and we could have ourselves put into game.
