Mr.Frag -> Automating Supplies (1/8/2003 9:55:52 PM)

I seem to be confused on how to automate supply runs. Can someone who completely understands this let me know... I create a Transport TF with a couple of AK/AP etc. I tell it to load supplies. I give it a destination base for DH. I set it to "do not retire". I then set it to "computer controlled". Works like a charm from some bases, CS: xxx shows up. I run multiple Transport TF's in this manner from one base no problem. Other bases such as Rabual/Truk work for the first trip then I find all the transports piled up in port doing nothing. I remember there being something different about certain bases and the way the "computer controlled" option works, but it seems I do not understand. Can someone clearly explain the implications of which base is the home port and the "Retire/Do not Retire" setting on computer control for both supplies and fuel and whether supply & fuel can be combined? Obviously, with upwards of 100 AP/AK/TK/AO running around, manually controlling them becomes a nightmare yet proper use of supply is absolutely key to winning the game...
