Re-Arm? Where? How?

[Temujin]

I'm on my 4th patrol, late 1939 - early 1940 close to Lisbon.
The color of that city is green (friendly?)

I got a radio message about a large Convoy and attacked it.
Until now, 7 ships down. ~40,900 ton. 10 torpedoes fired.

Now, I still have to get to my patrol area and I have only 3 Torpedoes left.

How can I re-arm? Can I go into the Lisbon port (green) and get supply?
Can I just dock there and get arms?
Is there any other way?

TIA,

Temujin

Green is neutral. They wont help you.

Anytime you dock, assuming your using an unmodified game, the game treats it as if its the end of a war patrol. And you'lll be in port for 30 days. And if you want access to equipment, you have to dock at YOUR home port. However you can dock at any friendly port and you will get a fresh load of torpedo's.


Look into rubini's harbor trafic mod. It changes it so you can dock at friendly ports and resupply with only 1 day's time elapsed while in port instead of 30. That and milk cow resupply boats.

Oh ya, anytime you do dock at a port, what was on the world map changes, since regardless if you use harbor traffic or teh vanilla game, the game looks at it as the end of a war patrol and when you leave the beginning of a new one.

Here's a good download link for Rubini's latest Harbour-Traffic mod:
http://www.git.com.au/~voyager_tek/Harbour_Traffic_147_standalone.7z

The file DL is about 35MB and needs decent computer power to use this mod (good graphics card, etc.), as it adds many things, including ships/subs in friendly ports, sub escorting out of bases, aircraft, etc.

Open your main SH3 folder, and create a new folder called: MODS

Download this auto-mod installer (JSGME), at:

http://members.iinet.net.au/~jscones/software/products/jsgme.zip

Put the CD in your drive and copy the Harbor-Traffic mod (the entire folder) to your newly created "MODS" folder.

Install JSGME auto-mod installer (best to put it in your SH3 main folder, and load Jsgme.exe.Highlight the mod on the left, and hit the 'right-arrow' key. The mod will then be enabled.

BE SURE to install the Harbor Traffic Mod while not on patrol (install the mod while in port, before another patrol starts).

If all fails read the 'JSGMEHelp.txt' file that comes with JSGME. It's very easy to use.
