Photo Recon Mission won't end
 

Hey guys,

I'm new to SH4, worked my way through a ton of tutorials and threads here and I am now playing the Campaign with 100% realism and TMO 2.5 installed.

My objective is to take photos in Ishinomaki harbour. I got into the harbour and I am within a range of <1000 miles. There is only one ship there. I raised my periscope, locked the target, pressed the photo button in the lower left, but it still says my mission is incomplete. There is nothing else to be photographed :/ I dont know how to end that mission. Any advice?

PS: I went there before, but got attacked by a destroyer and 2 gunboats before I could enter the harbour. I had floodings and purely out of desparation I had to surface the boat. Luckily I was able to sink all three ships with my gun (I have no idea how taht worked :D), went back to Midway, repaired everything, got new fuel and torpedoes and headed back for Ishinomaki.

***EDIT***

Okay, I am sorry. There was a merchant behind me, who left the harbour and was heading for the open sea. I took photos of him and suddenly my mission was completed :)

But had you not asked the question the solution would never have smacked you in the back of the head!:har:

It's like when somebody is late, you call their phone and the person, phone ringing for some reason, walks in the door......
