Hey
Very bad weather and seriously out of fuel forced us to enter Wilhelmshaven instead of homeport Kiel. Once in port did as mentioned above re medals etc saved, exited and reloaded SH3Commander. Decided we deserved a 2 week break after the long patrol north of Scotland (and current date is 24 december 1939 after all...) and selected a new patrolgrid a bit closer to home (AN73).

But after starting up again, we got kicked out of harbour the next day (25 dec) under armed escorte and with a NULL grid and no mission orders?

Tried several times, even selecting a save before entering Wilhemshaven and doing it all over, but no luck. One reload even gave me the clearest, bluest and brightest ocean I've ever seen - and nothing else all around. wth?! A map look-up said we were 800 km south of the african Goldcoast and 1500 km west of Gabon!

Found SH3Patrol and now have mission order for grid AN73, but the NULL value still shows... What am I doing wrong? Using SH3Commander ver. 2.61 which according to the readme should be able to handle this docking in friendly port thing?
