As far as I know, once you are out of ammo, you should just return to base. If you have reloads still on board, just tell your (lazy) torpedo crew to get their butts in gear.

Hi dragoneer2 and welcome to the forum.

As UKönig says if you have used all torpedoes on board you can only replenish at:

1. Your home base port (with all crew, upgrade & re-supply options available)
2. Another friendly base (limited options)
3. At a German supply ship or U-tanker (also limited)

If you still have reserve torpedoes aboard but don't know how to load them let us know and we can help. Reloading external reserves can be a bit tricky...

What type of boat are you driving?

Sail towards the port in question. When you are close enough, hit ESC and then select Dock at: (friendly port's name).

Why yes, it does. You get your boat repaired, your fuel topped off, new torpedoes, and some shore leave to spend with that beautiful wife you have.

In SH4 you can refill and repair by getting close to the icon and following the on screen prompts, in SH3, that is not an option and yes the patrol will end. If you are not docking at your normal fleet base you will get a new mission sending you back to the proper home port at that time. However, you will not be able to select which torpedos you are given, you will get whatever they give you, with preference bestowed to the boats that normally sail from there. You are a guest at a friendly port and are lucky to get anything from them at all...

If you don't go back to home port at least once in a while, your crew will mutiny and cast you ashore on a deserted island.

Do you really want to spend the rest of the war living like this?
