Here's an example of a submodel

0 Name: M7103a
0 Snowspeeder Left Wing

line one: remove the year and add a letter designating the
submodel, that way
the model and its submodels are all listed together in LDAO,
Explorer, etc.
line two: keep the official name, but add what the submodel is
line three: same as complete model
line four: same as complete model

Thought - with this system, how are you going to distinguish • between a
model (component in a set) and a component of a model • (commmonly known as
submodel)?  There should then be two letters after the set • number, or a
letter and a number (ie. SXXXXa1 or MXXXXa1) where a would be • the model and
1 would be the submodel.  If it is the whole model the 1 would • be omitted.
What do you think of this?  Leaving it open like you did could • cause some
confusion..

Exactly! :) OK, I guess we've reached the decision that the
first letter is to be S
instead of M. What I had origonally done was
M1234-99.dat  complete model
M1234a.dat     submodel of complete model
M1234a1.dat   submodel of submodel of complete model :)

Sorry I just had to do that, but I'm sure you were able to
follow it.
I guess this will now be the standard.
