Ending Career

incompetence?

they ask you after they want to give you a promotion. they literally promote you out of the job and end up skippering a desk.

so its because apparently you did so WELL

Those offers really suck. I turned down a new sub 3 times in a row wanting to do a complete career in a S class and got retired. Silly.

Course I used my port save and took the new boat so I could go on...but peod that you can't complete a career in the boat of your choice.

History is the answer, the Navy started retiring the S class boats in 1943. when the Gatos finally arrived in number. The Stock game has an end date for the S-18 at 1-1 1944 and the S-42 at 11-20-1945. Some were sent to other countries, used as training boats, coastal defense, or scrapped. The game mechanics seem to end your campaign if you do not have time to do a patrol before the boats were withdrawn.

If you want to keep an S boat try modding the interval date in the sub's upc file.

[Flotilla 3.UserPlayerUnitType 1]
ID= F3Sboat
NameDisplayable= S-18 class

IDLinkUserPlayerUnitType= S18
UnitTypeCommonality= 11 ; to be used when a random choice is assigned

I to want to keep me s-boat a lot longer time then the game gives you.
