Full hull repairs at resupply ships?

You cannot issue medals or skills at supply ships, and you will lose any that you earned even when you do finally go home.

You cannot choose your torpedo loadout from a supply ship.

You cannot make crew changes while at a supply ship.

Well,you can hand out medals,and take loadout (if you go into Basic cfg file)....but I guess this may depend, on the realism you're using, so I'm not a 100 in this

You can hand out medals if you are in SH3Commander. Changing your torpedo loadout would require file editing, but wouldn't that be doing so in "mid patrol?"

Supply ships, is in principle so that you go to your home base, so making changes in the basic file, is for me, not caused any problems at all.

Just one small point not mentioned...you will incur an extra day at the supply ship for every % point of damage your boat has taken.

Didn't know that.... So what is the unmodified number of days normally spent at supply ships?

One day, as far as I know as long as you do not have damage to the hull, which jimbuna mentioned above, in the previous item.

I think the 1 day "in base" at a supply ship is a Commander feature - I don't think the game adjusts down your DIB if you dock at a supply ship instead of returning to port. OTOH I've never done it without Commander so I don't know.

With or without Commander, though, you still get those extra days for hull damage. It can be edited out by tinkering with career files in between patrols but I haven't done it for a while.

Yeah, but the patrol has to launch before you can change the loadout (from any where else than home base, where you can truly adjust it "between" patrols), am I right?

It might be perfectly safe; I just don't mess with stuff like that after the patrol has kicked in.

Good/wise principal.
