Is the bdu retarded????

I don't have SH5 (you know why

), but with SH3/4 when I left base, that was the last BDU/COMSUBPAC heard of me until I pulled into harbour, either with no torps or no fuel 'or food'. Contacting 'home base' is just not on... unless you want to make a target of yourself.

I'm not sure what the devs have done with SH5, but go for a 'walk on the sea' for a while and see what happens.

It wouldn't make a difference in SH3, but in SH4, ComSubPac got pretty cranky if you didn't follow orders. A few patrols of that and you'd end up with an early desk job. SH5 tends to follow the SH4 model, meaning that all BdU seems to care about is tonnage.
