Ship Damage Status

Can anyone tell me how to manipulate the ship damage records in SEOW databases. I'm doing a Sink the Bismarck campaign and know from experience that I will want to fudge the numbers a bit. If they manage to hit the Bismarck at all, which is looking unlikely, I would like to slow it down arbitrarily.

Hi Zoi,
The Ship_Damage_Status table contains the damage state of every ship. The three primary kill zones are Hull1, Hull2, Hull3. If any of these zones gets damage > 1.0 then the ship dies. The total damage state is the Pythagorean sum of these three damage indicators:
Total Damage = SQRT( Hull1^2 + Hull2^2 + Hull3^2)
The ship experiences a slowdown proportional to the Total Damage:
Max Speed Damaged = (Max Speed Normal)*(1.0 - Total Damage)
Cheers,
4S
