I'm playing a PBEM (DBB-C) game. I've played DBB-C before. We are in mid-January 42 and I am seeing some of my subs switching to Computer Control and heading off elsewhere. Very annoying. Has anyone else experienced this...is there something we could have overlooked in setting up the game? I believe my opponent has similar experience...
Any advice would be appreciated.

You have auto sub patrols on. It's one of the settings that pretty much everyone turns off. I don't remember which menu it's under....GP

I think that it is at the very beginning of the game and then once the game starts, a player can't change it.

RJ is correct. It is not in the Preferences Menu so it must be a game start only choice.

What is the first sign of old age? I just don't remember!
