Yeah, that's about the sum of it. I used the flak gun thing to skip ahead to the IXC availability date, backed out of that save and restarted the game, loaded that save, got my IXC and outfitted it properly, with all office calendars showing 26 March 1941.

I then went into the patrol and all the dates inside the patrol were 20 December 1940. The boat was in fact a Type IX and the game reports it as an IXC. I wouldn't mind being on the first wave of IXCs into the water, but I was planning on having the crew home for Christmas, etc.

I had previously deselected the specific days in port option of SH3C and chosen random time in port after successfully getting the IXC, for what it's worth. Looking at Patrols_0.cfg, I'm starting to get tempted to change the date in the PATROL 010 fields, specifically StartYear, StartMonth, StartDay, StartHour and StartMinute. Do you know how that works?
