Default Re: Problem with SH3 Commander patrol start date

I'm in an online SH3 campaign, and I need to force the start date to March 1st.

Anyone got any ideas ?
Why did you alter the end date of the last patrol? Doing so makes it much harder to fault find - the previous date was there for a reason!

OK, dumb questions first...
-"Set number of days spent in base to:" option is checked?
-After you changed the date in Patrols.cfg, did it correctly display as the "Last Patrol End" date in SH3Cmdr?
-What was the original end date that you overwrote?
-You didn't upgrade after going into SH3? For if you do and your in-base date goes beyond the 14 days, your next patrol will (logically) start on the later date.
-In your game's Basic.cfg file, what is the value assigned to NbDaysInBase (under TIME block) - both pre and post rollback?
