1. You are correct, BF10 does not exist. It is a known error which happens from time to time, although I have never had it myself.

2. Orders from the BdU do not matter at all, you are free to go where ever you please, your intial patrol grid will be the only order from the BdU you will ever receive.

In reality the BdU agressively micro managed the majority of their submarines and regulary updated their orders through a constant stream of radio traffic, in GWX this is somewhat represented by 'immersion' messages that do not have any effect on the gameplay.

3. I tend to head for my assigned Patrol Grid (will meander on the way looking for targets) and do the 24hrs as it is nice to have somekind of 'goal.' Then I'll head off on my own and only return if I am out of torpedos or bingo fuel.

If you are playing GWX the patrol grids you are assigned tend to be in high traffic areas or on convoy routes so they are usualy worth checking out. In vanilla I believe the assigned patrol grids are random.

[RENOWN]
RenownReachGridObjCompleted=0
RenownPatrolGridObjCompleted=0

If you are running GWX (I assume you are) then you can edit the above section in data/cfg/basic to award yourself renown for completing your orders. Just change the '0' to a value you think you'll deserve. This helps add an incentive.
