ASW patrol question

Post by bush »

Some of the ships I have set to patrol an area in ASW-mode will return to port and refuel on their own, then go back out to patrol. Others will sometimes come into port and disband. I am unable to discern why there is a difference. Any tips?

I bet there's not enough fuel for refueling.

It's usually damage levels that I've noticed that causes ASW TFs to disband.

Sounds like that the damage level is the culprit. That's something hard-coded, right? I can not set a higher value?
