Guess I am missing something here; I know that you get a message that you should stay for 4 hrs, but departing sooner doesn't make any difference, you still get completely refuelled and you still get torpedoes - not always a full load, but still.

Some other thing, on my 14th patrol I was involved in the Battle of Leyte, chasing Ozawa's Northern Force - the one with the carriers - about 75 nm on it's way down south, managed to sink 3 DD's and one Taiyo CVE. I noticed that the date and course of the Task Force does not match historical data, i.e. you can't simply download a map of the real battle and sit around waiting, and that's a good thing!

The whereabouts are correct, i.e. it will pop up somewhere near it's historical position, but you still have to do lots of searching. The composition of the Task Force seems to be randomized somewhat as well - just for the fun of it I played the sequence three times, once there were 2 Kuma CL included, another time it was 2 instead of 1 Taiyo CVE ship - makes good replayability!

Thumbs up for this mod, I enjoy it!
