Ending a patrol successfully
I am a newbie. I graduated from Naval Academy and went on an attack convoy mission. I was able to sink a couple ships, evade the escorts and sail home to Wilhelmshaven. I sailed into the slip, saw and heard the welcoming committee and stopped engines. Now what? How do I indicate mission accomplished and add to my career. All I could see to do was Abandon Mission or Not. If I abandon I don't get Career credit for the patrol. What am I to do to end the patrol successfully and get credit for it?

Would help to know just what you're running SH3 with... :hmmm: Is it CCoM, GWX3 Gold, LSH3-2015, NYGM, WAC 5.0 or higher.. since I don't know what the version factor is on that, at the moment... or are you running SH3 in plain, jane vanilla mode... :06: There are a lot of different mega mod additions for SH3... so, again, it helps to know just how you're set up for playing SH3.

SH3 plain vanilla
I am running the plain vanilla version of SH3 through Steam. When I arrive at Wilhelmshaven after a patrol and pull up near the dock, I hit Escape and get the response: Do you want to abandon your mission? Yes or No. Nothing about docking. I just abandon and all record of the patrol is gone.

It sounds like you are playing in a single mission, not a career.
IIRC, you cannot dock at port after having completed a single mission. You can only abandon the mission. Your record of the mission won't be kept in a career, I believe. By the way, welcome to Subsim! |
I sank 162265 Tons of shipping in SH3
Hello chaps!
Im on my 24rd patrol.. and before this I was on my 23rd patrol On doing a 100% realism challenge.. except I do have external view and no map contact info off, so I have them.. I earned this deal by finding a lot of convoys that had C3 tankers or troop ships in them.. I went off the coast of africa down to grid GR.. every little large convoy I get I always.. I mean ALWAYS go and check it out, try to intercept it.. well this time since I have the Vando shipyard mod for sh3.. I spotted a convoy with a ton of large liners and a Noramidie ocean liner. And that baby is about 87000 tons.. and I sank her with 2 torpedos and I sank another ocean liner with 1 torpedo. And thats how I got this enormous deal. 41000+33000+87000= Greatness. As Like always, YES MATE!! :Kaleun_Cheers: |

If this is indeed the case, as I suspect.. then your having done it, when you abandon... is NOT going to get saved.. only running a career, as a Kaleun & completing patrols, will count toward it being saved into the log book. M. M. :Kaleun_Salute: |
Docked safely
I went into career mode and I was able to complete a patrol and return to Wilhelmshaven and dock. Thanks all for the help.
