So you went back to a save that was just before entering port, but after the sinking of those 2 vessels? That suggest the effects of that bug (loss of renown through crew/equipment changes) can be solved by just going back to a save AFTER you entered port. No need to redo the whole patrol then, it seems.

Congratulations on your success, too bad you didn't receive the credit.

If you want new crew members before your 1st patrol pick the ones who have a renown value of 0. I do this frequently & haven't had any problems with that bug (to date).

exactly, it works if you have a this kind of problem you can get rid of it by using your last save before docking I was lucky I saved my game 60 Km. to Kiel so I loaded that save and docked to Kiel again :up:

Even with BST this was before a state of war existed between the GB and Germany.

I noticed that British Ports turn red just after Midnight on the 3rd.
I normally receive a message before 10am UTC saying that British Ships are valid targets.
Normally in the afternoon/evening I get the message saying that war has been declared.

Which is my que to go ahead and attack shipping. I have been lucky so far as my first kill has only ever been early hours on the 4th.
