Hi Sid,
This lets you assign different objectives during the campaign as you see necessary. In WDAD you have a set of objectives when you are assigned to the base in Trincomalee (WEST=Andaman islands, Malacca Straits) and a different set when you move to Fremantle (EAST=Java Sea, South China Sea).
After you set these objectives in the
flotillas.upc file, each patrol zone or special mission you add to
PatrolObjectives.cfg has a field called
AllMatch that tells the game which patrol zones belongs to each objective. In WDAD, all objectives set to WEST correspond to Trincomalee-based operations (up to 10/15/1944) and the ones labeled EAST are for Fremantle submarines.
My apologies if it's not very well explained.
