Hello,
playing the U-Boat campaign (1st part 1943) in the Indonesia region i wonder where i can repair the boat ?

I "arrived" with the IX D2 in Penang, and "set sail" to Davao, until ending up in Rabaul. But although i can refit my ship there with torpedoes, and ammunition, there's no hull repairs possible. As well there are no promotions, decorations etc. possible here.
Do i have to go back to Penang, or better a bigger harbour like Surabaya ?
Or are repairs of U-boats impossible ?
There's nothing in the manual, or pdf - or i didn't find it ahem.

Playing SHIV with patch 1.5, and the FOTRS mod.

Thanks and greetings,
Catfish
