Patience is a virtue in this sim.

Patrolling for days on end without contacts is common. The enemy is out there......somewhere...

Try submerging and listening on hydrophones (turn the ambient volume up), you'll be surprised what's just over the horizon...

Also, keep your radioman well fed and rested, he's the source of your RDF map contact updates.
