radio in after mission

[banjo]

To say it another way, when you complete an objective get on the surface and open your radio message (M key with the mod I am using). Then click on send (left envelope if you are using UBM 1.5). You will immediately receive a new objective.

IF you have torpedoes / fuel remaining. In fact if you want to 'cheat' you can re-fit then phone home and have an endless patrol.

This is something I've wondered about. Since endless patrols are possible (and Midway is always closer than Pearl), what is a realistic limit for patrols? I've been limiting myself to refuelling on the way to the objective, but never intentionally rearming (although rearming occurs with refueling, and sometimes refueling after the objective is necessary in order to get home).

In other words, I limit myself to one full load of torps per patrol. After they are expended, I consider the boat to need maintenance and I go home.

Thats a pretty good outlook game wise. In real life it was more limited by the amount of food and other provisions aboard.

Many a time a boat would return with a full load of munitions, not a single kill let alone a sighting. But that wouldent be very much fun in a game.
