what file handles the time spent on location for patrols. I want to reduce the time needed to stay in the patrol area.

Im thinking that it may be

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 4 Wolves of the Pacific\Data\UPCData\UPCCampaignData\Patrol Objectives

just open with word or notepad.

Thats not the one. There was a mod awhile back but i couldnt find it. where ur mission is to patrol an area and it shortened the time you had to be there instead of spending 24 hours in the area.

Can't help as far as the MOD, I have not seen that mod, but Mush Martin is right if you can't find the mod all the missions in the game are written just like Single Missions. They create a zone and then an 'Objective' in the case of a patrol.

Here is Patrol Java Sea 01.mis

[Mission]
MissionType=0
MissionDataType=1
MultiMissionType=0
Year=1940
Month=1
Day=1
Hour=0
Minute=0
Fog=0
FogRand=0
Clouds=0
CloudsRand=0
Precip=0
PrecipRand=0
WindHeading=0
WindSpeed=5.000000
WindRand=0
WeatherRndInterval=5
SeaType=0

[MapZone 1]
Name=Patrol Java Sea 01_Zone1
Radius=100.000000 Size of the area you have to stay in.
MaxHeight=1000.000000
MinHeight=-1000.000000
Long=13111750.000000
Lat=-415000.000000
Height=0.000000

[Objective 1]
ObjName=Patrol Java Sea 01_Objective1
Obj=7
ObjType=0
RenownAwarded=200
AreaName=Patrol Java Sea 01_Zone1
AreaType=0
Presence=0
Time=2880.000000 Amount of time you spend in the zone in minutes. Not all Patrols are 24 hours this one is 48.

[EditorParams]
InitLongOff=-15042000.000000
InitLatOff=5192500.000000
ZoomIndex=0
Prefix=Patrol Java Sea 01

So if you can't find the MOD you can change the time, but there are a lot of missions, it might be easier just to time compress through it. It would be all the missions that are Patrols. (This example is the US/Japanese side)
