New user question.. I can't seem to be able to assign a ship to a home base. I select a port facility with a dock but it doesn't take. I am able to assign aircraft to homebases.

When a ship runs low on fuel I'd like it to return to port like an aircraft would. Also is there any other reason why you might assign a ship to a home base?

Thanks.

Right-clicking on the ship, then "Select Home Base" and clicking on the pier doesn't work?

It's probably because the pier size is too small for the ship. I've tried Brother against Brother scenario, and couldn't assign the ships to the base until I manually added larger pier.

This is (once again...) why savegames are important! [X(]

So I have tried "Select new home base" with different combinations of ships and piers and still not having any luck. I even tried the Brother against Brother scenario and added a larger pier but the "assigned base" never changes from "none"

Is there another scenario that you know to be working? I'm finding most scenarios have air bases and few with naval bases and piers. thanks.

What game engine and database are you using?

Got the same problem Tried piers Depot ships can get it to work
Game 1.11 804 CWDB latest Thanks for any help(It will be me LOL)

Sorry typo Can not get it to work

If I got this right, I'm using Command V1.10 Build 775.17 and DB3000 Build 440

Yeah it currently only works in v1.11 (B804) and with DB3K v442 [8D]

Using both these & still no luck It must me doing something wrong

Agh No I'm not I'm using the CWDB Sorry

Ok thanks. Do you know how the logic is set up? Will it RTB a ship at a bingo fuel similar to aircraft?

Dimitris knows this best, think you set the fuel state in the new Pier Ops tab in the doctrine window.
