Many thanx again!

Glad I could be of help. I haven't seen h.sie's fix, but I always tried to play along historical guidelines. If I had used more than one or two torpedoes before resupplying, I would fire off the extras it gave me. I never used resupply on the inbound journey - only outbound, as per real life standing orders. I remember reading somewhere that the thinking was that you should resupply when you know you can get it. The resupply ship may not be there for whatever reason on your way back in and if you're relying on it to give you enough fuel to get home, you'd be screwed if it wasn't there.
