Just NbDaysInBase. Of course, what this means is that if NbDaysInBase is set to say, 1, and the player decides to upgrade to a bigger and brighter toy in the meantime, he won't be leaving port the next day, he'll be bound by the delays that are created by the upgrading, which stands to reason. But of course, this won't be a problem for the Milk Cow mod...I would suspect.

SH3Cmdr comes with versions of Basic.cfg that include Flotilla updates, so if you select 1st, 2nd or 7th Flotilla, your Basic.cfg will be replaced (backed up of course) by SH3Cmdr's version. Of course, you can delete these files, but you'll lose the Flotilla changes. But I'll leave this part to Beery to explain further...or better...
The new SH3Cmdr SH3 options, viz "Display Hull Integrity %", "Randomise number of days spent in base", "Set number of days spent in base to" and "Use fatigue model" write only to the relevant parts of Basic.cfg (or _menu.txt in respect of the Hull text) and *only* if selected by the user. No selection means no changes. Again, files are backed up for restoration when the next "Rollback" occurs. These options are fairly exclusive - ie setting the Hull text is not going to conflict with any (mod) changes made to _menu.txt, nor really will setting a fatigue model (note that you can also import your own fatigue models into this version and then you are guaranteed of always getting the same fatigue model regardless of what mods you install). Your conflict may be with the Days spent in base option, but if you have a NbDaysInBase setting which you don't want overwritten, it just needs to be made clear to the user to keep the option unchecked. Alternatively, Milk Cow users could simply set the value in SH3Cmdr themselves to be 1, or 2, or even 0 if they are in a hurry.
I'm not sure if I've covered your question, so let me know if not.
