I was wondering about this the other day when I used a milkcow for the first time (in a long time anyway) - are they set up so that your damage is repaired? Is that controllable, i.e., can this be set so that you don't get repaired at one of these, or does it happen automatically/invariably because the game thinks they're regular ports? It seems to me that while maybe the surface supply ships might be able to perform some reasonable level of repairs, I would doubt that the supply subs would really be able to do that, and that you probably should be limited to some torps, food and fuel from the supply subs. Of course, that's just my supposition, not based on any research at this point, and if the game engine can't be changed to vary this then it really doesn't matter anyway. I just wish we could fix the "extra patrol" problem with the milkcows.
