Default Supply ship question

Can someone tell me why it takes a month to refuel and rearm from a supply ship? Is there a fix for this?

And I remember reading something about it taking only 1 day with Commander or something,but I use Commander..

It's supposed to be automatic with Commander, but if you're having a problem just set the Days-In-Base to 1 manually, before starting again. Don't forget to change it back later, though.

I had the same deal two patrols ago. I use Commander(though a older version) and I also thought that it factored in when you stop at a supply ship rather than base. I have my time at BASE set for 30 days. I stopped at a supply ship expecting a 24hr stop and was stuck there 30 days. I just reloaded a previous save and didn't need the supply ship after all. I would like to know for future stops though.

Maybe the days in port fix doesn't work if 'Days in port:' is turned on?

Would the "Randomize Days in Port" option cause it too?

Commander should automatically detect where you've docked and set the time to one day
