Default GW Milkcow possible?

I was wondering is reloading torps/shells fuel in GW?
If so wich button do i have to press, i already looks under F1 and under radarman functions..

I reaced to an milkcow once but I didnt dare to dock , I was afraid I will lose the patrol or something.

so my question is what happens if I dock at an Milkcow?
Is it just an resupply and if I continue that I can go to my Grid where I have to patrol?

New patrol with no coordinates listed. Use the promotions, qualifications and medals as they can't be held over till the next patrol.

Bugger, Because I thought it was an ressuply and continue to ur grid, but it will start up an new patrol that you'll have to go to ur port without patrolling 24h ?

So its actually the best to first complete ur 24 Grid patrol get to an Milkcow , ressuply and head back home?

Yes in order to get maximum renow,you should go to your patrol sector,stay there 24 hours then dock at the milk-cow if possible and return to port.

I make sometimes 2 to 3 trips to the milkcow in one patrol, i enjoy playing the game this way - do 24 hr patrol grid, hang around near english waters hunting, when low, head to fill up at Bassel, then head to the Gibralta to hunt, return to bassel to refuel/rearm then repeat.
After third refuel/rearm i head home with a full tank and torps so i hunt all the way back.

I pressed the F1, and there is nothing about Resuply.
I play with 1.4B with GW... 1939 VII type, unless milkcows comes later around 41,42 or later

Yeah they dont come in till later
The resupply ships appear first ( Feb 40 IIRC ) but you should still have resupply info in F1
