I did change the config file, and get the option to skip the tutorial when I start a new campaign, but when I start the campaign it loads for about 45-60 secs and then dumps me back to the uplay launcher.

You say;
'I did change the config file'
an then
'... get the option to skip the tutorial when I start a new campaign'

You shouldn't get the option to 'Skip tutorial' - you should just go to the campaign

Are you 100% sure you do this;
1. Edit the .cfg file to 'true'
and then
2. Save it as an .cfg file?

I ask this because when you open it in Word Pad and then want to save it as a .cfg file the default is .txt > You have to choose file format 'All files'! Only this way the file will be saved as a .cfg file

I think I might not have saved it correctly, so I will do it again using your method

Default Dock Icon at Wilhelmshaven Missing

I am trying to dock in the sub pens at Wilhelmshaven to have my sub repaired and I'm not getting the icon. I'm trying to finish the second mission but I've got a lot of damage and need repairs. I did all the research I can: My sub icon is indeed at Wilhelmshaven (switched ports on me while at sea), I watched the youtube video and followed it step by step with no joy. Pressing shift+z toggles my UI but doesn't produce a docking icon.

I have sober's mega mod installed with real navigation and realistic underwater disabled. Any ideas? I'm at a total loss here.

If you are pretty sure your home base is Wilhelmshaven try to save → completely quit → load last save

Wow, sometimes the most obvious solution is the best. As soon as I loaded it up, I could dock. I was so frustrated last night trying to dock and I didn't even think of this.

I got SH5 through Steam so could mine be somwhere else because of this?
