long patrol

Ok I am leaving Wilhelmshaven and heading down to DH99 I am just passing the Bay of Biscay, and am down to 4 torpedoes, 14 rounds of 4.1 inch. Not looking good.
But on the flipside, 42 000 tons are sunk now, 1 dd, 1 armed trawler , and the rest cargo ships.
I had one one convoy that I ran into, on my way to get it I got the IXB upto 20 knots, just a skimming away this is a night a right about 15 000 m's from me is a a small cargo so I gunned him down, and then the convoy.
The bloody armed trawler was a shot off the rear 10 secounds after firing at a large transport on the far side of the convoy. Problem for me is I took single shots at the transport and didnot wait long enough between firing the fish I got a premature about 15 secounds into the run.
So the large transports ended up sinking but took for ever and still does not show on my map as sunk, when I went and looked at it all that was left was the tip of the stern. So I put some air holes into it and she went down but this is how the I left the area.



The transport on the map is just some scrap on the surface.

So question is not do I go and do my grid, but if I hit Vigo and resupply there I will be told to go back home, on the way there I am told that I transfered to France but my M key still tells me to go to Germany. What do I do??

This happened before and I never got to finish as I had to reinstall the game well playing with it I screwed up something.

Did you get a message to go to a new base?
If it is august 1940 you will soon get a message to go to one of the French ports.

Default resupply and home

I think it will be resupply at Vigo, then go back home no matter the radio messages.
