Unable to dock
 
Sigh okay follow the chain of events:

Ordered to deploy and sink shipping, so i reach my designated sector and comple my deploy objective, i engage a convoy and the first ship to literally present itself @90 degrees AOB is a tasty Japanese Destroyer :smug: . Resist i could not so i let loose to mk10 fish (im in a rickety old s class, i love em) and get a double impact, so down she goes, next i turn on a merchantman and loose 2 more fish, and dive to rearm, all is well and good and i get my second load of tonnage, the remaining tin cans give me a run for my money but i manage to evade and night surface, i report my contact, and recieve a new primary order; destroy convoy escorts!!!!!!! Now i've already took out one! and didnt fancy re-engaging so i disengaged, later on that patrol i took out more merchant and completed my second primary order to destroy merchant shipping, so with a nice tally and low on torps i head for home.

But hey whats this it won't let me dock! I assume because i havent completed the new order of takin out tin cans (even though i had already sent one to Davy Jones). The dock option is grey and i can only refit. NOW I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF a skipper not bein allowed to dock because he didnt meet one of his objestives. Is this another case of sloppy scriting or is there a work around?

Cheers and keep the rum rations watered :arrgh!:

It looks like your home base was been changed. The game has a feature of sometimes not telling you when your base has been changed and to where.

SOMETIMES THEY DO TELL YOU THAT THE BASE IS CHANGED.

yeah, it's not likely cuz you didn't sink the escorts. i've docked with incomplete objectives, so it's quite likely your base has changed

I think what happens is that, if the radio command to change bases comes out while you are deep you don't get notified of the change.
