Why is it (refitting)...

Why is it that sometimes you can sail to a 'port' and an anchor icon pops up and you can re-fit and re-fuel.

Other times no anchor pops up so the trip was wasted.

Is this a bug or are they just out of munitions/fuel?

Sometimes the little icons that indicate you're submerged, running silent or are at battle stations disappear. Seems a bug caused by using shift+Z to hide the interface. Try pressing shift+Z again when you know the icon should be there, and it should pop up.

yup, i confirm that.

Hide and re-show the UI, and they will popup.

And i think i know the cause of it as well. You get it when you turn the UI off, and then do something that forces it back (.ie talk to one of your crew). Atleast thats what happened to me.

Very possible I do turn the UI off on occasion.

Thanks for the heads up
