Quick question or two.

Why does it take so long to get a call for refit? I am like cruising the Atlantic forever now without any ammo or torpedoes whatsoever.

and

Why am I not able to send convoy conacts even after identifying every ship of the convoy through the UZO. Neither by using the captains log or the radioman?

Dont wait to be called for refit. Just head back and end patrol. Or head to a friendly base and pick refit.

To send contact report - you must be able to see the contact and be on the surface.

Hey Trevally,

Using the UZO actualy means you are on the surface and see the contact. and I must add I was at a mere 3000 m from the convoy so I don't think that is an issue either....
Any other idea's?

It was a friendly convoy :O:


Only other condition is that it must be 2 hours after your last contact report.

laughs,

no absolutely not....not friendly at all and since i found it in broad daylight reported it at 11:30 or something after a periscope check and a status report. I had to follow it laterely for the rest of the day to manoeuvre my boat in the night on the surface at the said distance. So, I was at 3000m, on the surface, and my last report was hours before. Must be a glitch again...never mind, I'll refit and find another. Thanks for the help anyway!:up:
