This is the correct solution. Only wish I had heard of it before I docked at Fremantle. Now I have to sail all the way tp Brisbane to dock and end mission.

I was sure I never received a change base mission. Oh well...at least I have a full fuel load now

and can cruise at flank speed.

You will not receive "Change Base" missions in SH4 unfortunately. As a person who really likes to do campaign mods, it is ~very~ frustrating to not be able to send a boat from Fremantle to Truk for patrol, and then have them go into Pearl or Mare Island for an overhaul, and then spend an extra month not going on patrol. Just does not happen in the game. Everything is "simulated"...

In a new career, I was based in Manila but was told that fell, so my new base would be Surabaya. However, I could only refit there--and no other port has a slanted anchor!

I am using a map which has overly large anchors and I hate it. I want a coloured map with small anchors but I have been having health issues and keep forgetting to try and change it. Then I had to re install win 11 from scratch, so further delays. On my current map it does not even show home base.

you did not post which mod set you are playing.

be advised that RFB (Real Fleet Boat with RSRSC) has a similar pothole.
Mid-1943, certain boats are moved from Midway to Majuro.
there IS a message announcing the move however, while you are kicked out of Midway on one date, Majuro is not activated for almost a month.

I have never learned to mod, so I'm playing a vanilla version, re-downloaded from Amazon into my new laptop with Windows 11.

ok. vanilla SH4.

yes, under certain circumstances, you could experience a gap in availability of a Home Base.

this is why mods are born.

Although I have an original disc, I am using Steam version. This is the best subsim, with the biggest headaches
