Okay, did as you said...reverted my last patrol completion date to what it was ( Feb 4th 1942 ) and undid the alterations to the NBDaysInBase line both in Patrols.cfg in my career folder, and in basic.cfg in my game folder.

Here's what I get

The current date is Monday March 23rd 1942.

After doing this I looked at the NBDaysInBase in my careers folder Patrols.cfg...its gone up from the default 31 days to 47!

I then looked at the [TIME] section of my game's Basic.cfg :

[TIME]
TransferFlotilla=1
NbDaysInBase=31
NbPatrolsInFlotilla=3
NbMonthsInFlotilla=6

Note that here, the default NbDaysInBase value is unaltered at 31

Thats where I stand at the moment. What makes SH3 Commander alter the patrols.cfg NbDaysInBase value from the default 31 to 47 ?

Once again, Jscones your help is appreciated. Observer, you too, though I'll stick with Jscones for the time being if thats okay.
