type XXI ??? no engine...

Hi Everybody,
i have a question and i need help.....
i'm in july 1944 and i changed flottilla ( from 12th to 3/11th )because i wanted to try the xxi uboat.
so i got the boat, i loaded new torpedos and everything else that i coud do to prepare myself from my next patrol. the base is now LaRochelle , but when i tried to start the engine and get out of the port, nothing happened...was a message 'unable to comply " or something similar.
i tried some different ways to start the engine, give her speed , move the crew...but nothing...
i'm using GWX2.1. SUB COMMANDER and some mods.....the game was fine before. I came back to port with my type IXD2, changed sub and now i'm stuck there.....please can you tell me what i can do ??? thanks a lot

Do you have the sabotage and malfunctions box checked in SH3 Commander? This could cause your problems.

You can also investigate by going to periscope depth and trying your electric engines.

i can't go at periscope depth because the engine won't start. you can move the arrow in the gauge for ahead whatever speed, you heard the order repeated , but the indicator remains on 0. no life, no speed, so nothing, not even the persicope depth. i'm not a modder or an expert in proggramming.....unfortunatly for me....i don't know what's wrong....

look at the barracks (filing cabinet in the back) in the career in port screen, like where you upgrade your U-boat. go to the filing cabinet in the back and CAMS (check and make sure) there is crew in it, I dunno if the crew transfers properly in the game, so that may be your problem

if there was a problem with the number of sailors he wouldn't even be able to load the patrol.
