Hi Rubini.
A little feedback for you as requested.
5/8 1943 departed lorient in a type IXC
exiting harbor traffic works perfectly
5/15 grid BF12 sunk a destroyer
5/15 grid BF11 sunk a tugboat by gunfire(so far not exactly a tonnage king)
headed towards grid AK56 to meet U-461 on station until 5/25
5/19 18:33 arrived grid AK56 SE quadrant. Ordered radar search. Weather ruff, heavy seas, distant lightning.
5/19 20:35 Radar is intermittent, ordered dive to 25m.
I drew a 30 km radius around the blue marker and set up a search pattern
my initial heading is due west 270 deg.
5/19 21:00 sound contact! 042, warship, moving slowly.
immediately ordered ahead full, surface, changed course to intercept.
5/20 00:02 sighted milch cow. Dark, stormy seas, will stay close until daybreak.
5/20 04:27 closed on type IX resupply sub. my speed was 5 kts and the AI sub started doing evasive manuevers. I backed off, reduced speed to 3kts just barely overtake him and evasive manuevers ceased. seems like if I close in very slowly AI does not respond. AT this time I was able to close within 5 - 10m of the AI sub keeping station at 1-2 kts.
I hit escape/exit mission/dock at u-461/start mission
5/20 17:46 mission starts with both subs still sitting side by side. I'm full fueled and loaded. 12 hours resupply.

I'm using SH3 Commander. Resupply times at milch cow worked perfectly.
(this was a serious concern)
both ships that were sunk disappeared from credits(known bug in the game?)
weather at time of docking stormy/weather at time of commencing very calm(no big deal)
I screwed the messages up cutting and pasting. I'm getting double messages now. (will fix tomorrow)
I've got a couple of screenshots of both subs close together at sea but really don't know how to send them.

All in all I'd say a resounding success! except for losing credits everything worked as advertized. Somehow there has to be a workaround to keep the tonnage earned on the way to the resupply.

Thanks
