Hi Gary
Quote > Yourself and SilentHunts talk about ending the patrol as if you carry on the game from where you left off, and keeping any tonnage that you had acquired.
Yes, this is totally correct.
When you end a patrol in the middle of a patrol, your end of patrol save is a Autosave Enter Base (AEB) .
When you load this AEB save you are back in the bunker.
You go to the Flotilla Leader.
1. What are my mission orders.
Do not select this.
Go to 2. Lets start the new patrol.
Are you sure you want to start the new patrol without choosing a mission.
Select 1. Yes.
You are already in a mission so you do not want to start a new one otherwise you will lose everything you have already achieved.
Your game will load with your tonnage bar showing your previous sinkings.
The Captains Log starts a new patrol.
Each patrol going back to when you started your new career can be seen in the Captains Log and is viewable by selecting the drop down tags.
The advantage when you end the patrol is that you can upgrade your boat with the renown that you have earned if you wish to or save it.
You can give bonus points to your crew as you see fit.
The downside unlike a refit which does not penalize the time spent refitting is the time spent in the bunker advances the date.
This advanced time can be offset by using the mod Change Days In Bunker and manually changing the defaults days 14 to your own choice.
