I changed these values both to 99 just to test and limped home with a sub that had 82 on hull damage. Now my previous patrols where I had received this much damage I had been asked if I wanted to retire and reassigned to a new boat (always a lesser class/porpoise) but on this patrol there was no such message.
On this particular patrol I had sunk 3 tankers and a cargo ship for around 18k tons and i was not asked to retire and kept my boat.
On a subsequent test I changed these values to 55 and limped home with a sub that had a hull damage of 73 however my patrol wasnt quite as good with only 2 wakatke patrol boats sunk and I was asked if I wanted to retire etc.....
So in a very limited 2 patrol test with new campaigns after changing these values I believe these values may be the ones needed to change in order to be able to limp home with a damaged sub to your choosing and not get demoted. Im not 100% sure this is fullproof but so far its holding up.
Just posting this for any who may be intersted and I do realize that this may not be for everyone or maybe anyone but for me I can now keep enjoying my boat without worry of demotion to a lesser boat after a heated battle. If this does not hold true I will post again.
