So I want my pre-war, probably just sailing around until the war starts, to be the only patrols to be used until the second patrol is started, which will be after the war has begun.

I'll probably include some war patrol type changes to the pre-war patrols using triggers for Dec. 7th and after, I just want to not be told to sink enemy ships and stuff before there's an enemy.

One other thing I'm hoping to do is include the PH attack in the game. The Jap task force is already modeled, so I thought about patrols north of Hawaii, where the sub might *accidentally* encounter it. Or more likely, a short patrol where you go out and do a few test dives, then come back in before the 7th. I think that would be cool to try shooting down some planes, like the Narwhal really did.

Thank you so much for the reply. I'll try them later today and see if that works.
Ok, if I am reading this right, you are not creating a new Career Start you are only changing the date of the one that exists. So in that case, in the Flotillas.upc and the PatrolObjectives.cfg change any "Startdate" that is set to NULL and give it a date of Dec 8. Except of course the ones you are creating.
