Default Returning to base

After you are out of ammo & torpedos what is the advantage if any in taking your ship back to base manually verses exiting the patrol & hitting the button return to base?

Some extra renown and the realism value of actually rueturning to port instead of getting Scotty to beam you up.

Open Basic.cfg. Look for lines:

[RENOWN]
RenownReachGridObjCompleted=200
RenownPatrolGridObjCompleted=200
CompletedPatrol=100
NEUTRAL=-1
ALLIED=1
AXIS=-10
WrongShipSunk=-5000
FirstRankRenown=100
SecondRankRenown=3500
EndCampaign=-5000

Edit to your liking (mainly the orange lines) - it's pretty straight forward what each line means.
