Where is the Brake ?

Hi mates,

Onboard U-178 in Jully 1943, actually near Capetown.
BdU sent me a radio message to tell me an order: refueling near the Brake on the East coast of Madagascar.
The probleme is there is no Brake near Madagascar...
But an other german ship is located much further.
The order says after refueling near the Brake I must go to Penang.
Can I refueling near the other ship ?
Could you tell me what should I do ?

Thanks in advance mates.

Yes you can refuel from any ship thats set up to do it
Of course you dont have to go to Penang if you dont want to but your flotilla is

OK thank you to the answer.
No problem I'm in the 10th Flottilla and orders are for me.



PS: but where is the Brake ? Is it a GWX bug ?

It is not a GWX bug I think, but just a glitch in the system. Like the resupply wouldn't spawn until after you go back to base.

OK, thanks, all is good now.
After refueling near the Charlotte Schlieman, my orders says go to Penang.

The problem seems to be in the time because the first message was sent in jully 1943 and when you press F1 key the Brake is not there before september 5, 1943...

Thanks again.

After docking at Penang everything should be fine when you start your next patrol.

Ha that reminds me of my 289 day patrol.
It was during the transit between penang and france.
Started in France, worked my way around.
Stopped at U-460 after abusing the south atlantic
(I combine patrols if I stop at a refueling and rearming stop)
Halfway thru the second half of the patrol, I started working to Penang.
Lets say hunting was scarce in the pacific for a LONG time.
