To change days in bunker (default is 14 days)
Place mod in your MODS folder - C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\MODS
Open JSGME
Right click on "change days in bunker" and click explore.
Open data folder.
Open Cfg folder.
Open UPC.CFG with notepad.
Look for line - MinimumDaysInBaseGE=14
change the "14" to the number of days you want to spend in bunker
Save changes and close.
Activate mod in JSGME
Done.

Now when you are in the bunker and you select next patrol, the number of days you have set will pass before your patrol will start.
If your boat is damaged or you select upgrades - more time may pass.
You can install or un-install this mod anytime.

Thanks for that! I allways thought 14 days was a bit short for my crew to visit the brothels and get drunk all the time.

Do not let them have too long Oscar. They may not come back

If a U-boat was only in port for reprovisioning, maintenance, and new orders, what was the usual time? 14 days seems too long to me? I would imagine 3 to 7 tops.

Thank you

Well, taking this random u-boat as an example:

U-103 - 11 patrols

Looks like there's an average of a month and more between each patrol. Looked at a few other u-boats and they were all around that same kind of time frame.

Jacke · 10-31-11, 03:52 AM

Although not an exhaustive statistical examination, I looked for the shortest time between 2 war patrols and found many around 6 days, with virtually none shorter, and as you said, a lot longer.

Without knowing the days added by SH5 when you do have repairs and modifications, I'd say 7 days in the bunker is a good minimum, but it may give an average time too low depending on those other day delays.

And thank you for all your contributions to making SH5 a better game and simulation.

Well, you must also consider the physical efforts of the crew during a two, three or more weeks patrol, which need some recovery time!

An average port time of 14 days (or more) are absolutely realistic!

How long would it take to upgrade a Hydrophone?

Lets say you have a GHG or KDB and want to upgrade to Balkon Gerat.
What would it require to change this? :

ry Dock::

How long for Bdu to give permission to enter Dry Dock, if allowed?
How long does it take to unload all Weapons and Fuel to prepare for Dry Dock?
How Long does it take to get boat into Dry Dock and Raise Dry Dock or Pump Water out of Dry Dock?
How long to remove previously installed Hydrophone?
How Long to install new Hydrophone?
How long to clean boat and do required Paint of boat and new welds?
Any Maintenance Crew worth thier salt would do all kinds of work while boat is in dry dock not related to this specific upgrade.
How long for Paint to cure? ::Weather Dependant::
How long to Flood Dry Dock and return to bunker?
How long to load all Weapons, Fuel and Provisions?
How much Time does your crew need at the brothels?

This one upgrade could easily exceed one month...

I would really like to see more control in this area.
Each item should have a required time to accomplish that task in the UPC files.
Example: Each Torpedo may take 1 hour to load or unload. Maybe 1.15 hours to laod/unload from tube to bunker or bunker to tube.
