I am very happy with the combination RFB + RSRDC but sometimes I get confused with the mission system. It tells you to patrol a certain area, usually 100 or 150 miles from a certain point for a certain time and sometimes when the time is over you get a new mission. All good so far.

Sometimes the time is over, usually 96 or 72 hours but nothing happens, the mission never gets accomplished, not even after a week or 10 days although 72 hours was the task. What am I missing?

The missions have specific and particular requirements. There are specific tonnage requirements, within a certain distance, IIRC. I am a little confused about them myself, but I don't get too wrapped up in the mission thing. As long as you sink ships, you will do ok.

You can always send in a status report to get a new mission. I often like to just patrol 'at large', without having any particular mission. One problem with the additional missions, is that they may require you to travel rather far afield, to achieve them.

Use the mission editor and if you want tonnage hang around NW Guadalcanal in late 42.

RSRD attempts to recreate shipping traffic as close to historical as possible, in that at the beginning of the war, the Japanese had a lot of merchant and naval targets for subs. As the war progressed, and losses mounted, the sub service ran short of targets.

Also, later in the war, the merchant ships stayed as close to shallow waters as they could, which made things tougher for the subs to go after them. But many sub crews had to count up how many sampans, junks, and fishing boats they could sink with the deckgun(s).

Other duties like dropping supplies, commandos, agents, and lifeguard duty also filled the agenda. Only thing I have yet to do, is get called for lifeguard duty.

[denny927]

very good to know, but like you say, should be more japanese ships, but is not my case in the first mission i sunk over 100.000tons between luzon and formosa, and other convoy near manila in 29 december 1941, but in the second mission seems disappears everything, in luzon strait too, stuck 3 weeks and nothing.....so....after this, and after all that stuff you said any suggestion about what i do?

Will this work with Fall of the Rising Sun mod? was not sure if this was just a caompaign layer upgrade of merchant and plane traffic or if it is more complex and therefore more likely to coflict with FOTRS

[jeff lackey]

OK, just want to make sure I have this right after reading a ton of pages!

I'm running the latest TMO. My understanding is that I apply the TMO version of the mod first (TMO is already installed) :

RSRDC_TMO_V502.7z

Do I then need to apply the patch?

RSRDC_V5xx_Patch1

Or is that patch already included now in the RSRDC_TMO_V502 version of the mod?

Thanks

[Hylander_1314]

Yep! That's the order!

TMO

TMO 2.2 Update

RSRDC_TMO_v502

RSRDC_v5xx_Patch1

That's what I just read on the RSRD thread a moment ago.
