[GWX] Problem with switching from Type II to Type VII

Hi,

After a really long time I came back to SH3 and GWX and started a nice career in 1st flotilla in Kiel in 1939 at the beginning of the war. After five patrols in March 1940 I now have enough renown (a bit over 2600) to swith to a Type VII B boat in time for the Norwegian offensive. However when I transfer to either 2nd (Wilhelmshaven) or 7th/13.th flotilla (Kiel) I don't get an option for a Type VII boat. It isn't displayed on the uboat screen. In 2nd flotilla I could change to a Type IX B (which I do not want and which I do not have enough renown for anyway), while in 7th/13th flotilla no uboat Type is shown at all. I get access to all the available updates and torpedoes etc, but switching to a Type VII is not possible.

I tried the following approaches:
- Created a second career in 1939, started a patrol, docked again right away and applied for transfer to the other flotillas. Same thing.
- I deactived all other Mods and tried with a vanilla GWX installation. Nothing.

Any suggestions? Is that a known bug?
Thanks

Woof
