My intention is not to sail type IIa around British Isles. Questions were separate.

What I usually do is I start my career with type II either a or d. After few patrols I change to type VII or sometimes to IX. Now with 2nd and 7th flotillas which move to french ports around mid -40 it's too late. My new submarine is transfered already. 1st flotilla moves year later so it usually solves my problem using type VII.

So you would need to change to look like

Flotilla1=903
TO1=941
NbStartingDate1=6
NbDate1=6
Emblem1=data/Emblems/SubEmblems/Flotillas/2nd flotilla.tga
NbBases1=2

DeparturePointLat1_0=6519934.000000 <---Kiels coordinates
Heading1_0=40.173100 <---Kiels start heading
Base1_1=753;Lorient
Date1_1_0=1940
Month1_1_0=12 <---- month flotilla moves
Date1_1_1=1944
Month1_1_1=8
DeparturePointLong1_1=-399068.000000
DeparturePointLat1_1=5729721.000000
Heading1_1=135.000000
NbUboats1=2
Uboat1_0=1
Uboat1_1=2

Date10=1939
Month10=8
Starting10=Yes
TypeSub10=0; 11A <---will start with IIA now
VersionSub10=0
iNbName10=3
------------
Date11=1940
Month11=12 <--- If starting game December 40 onwards you will start with a IX as denoted below
Starting11=Yes
TypeSub11=2; IX
VersionSub11=0; B
So this is for if wan't to start a new career and do transfer patrol?

How about if have done few patrols with type II. Then change to 2nd flotilla and to type IX after mid -40. Now my new home port is Lorient and that's where my new sub is parked. What files I need to edit to make my new sub start from either Kiel or Wilhelmshaven?
