Just to let you guys know, I have found several RGG (Random Generated Groups) in a few of the Jap_HarborTraffic layers that are calls to AI submarines. These are calls from the Stock game that happen to still be in the mod, and while the calls were edited to pull the AI subs that keltos01 gave us for the mod, the numbers of vessels were not changed, such that the one call especially might ask for as many as 4 subs, but it is limited to 1 in the MaxUnits setting, which might cause issues for those folks running along the Hokkaido, Honshu, to Kyushu coast... in other words, from the southern Kuriles to Bungo Suido. The group doesn't run very often, but might contribute to the issue. There are also several groups that are not "Docked" properly, also leftover from the Stock days. Between the several issues found, that may contribute to the issues. We'll see what happens when I finish the edits. I still cannot replicate what you fellows have encountered, so it almost has to be several RGG that are the issue(s).

@ Fire: If you use the "Update Status" to fone home, so long as you have a few torpedoes left, the DynamicMiss file will keep assigning you missions, so long as there is one within "reach" of the assignment. We did shorten-up the distance from your location to most of the assignments, but you will still be taken outside the CenPac area if you get close to the SoWesPac (or SoPac) areas (and vice versa), as happened to you. The game cannot distinguish between CenPac, SoWesPac and SoPac (Brisbane) assignments.



Of course, it is your prerogative to either accept or decline the "orders", and you could always assume that anything given to you for over there (if sailing from Pearl or Midway) would be given at the request of the 7th Fleet. The "lines" were rather loose, and CenPac boats were regularly right off of, just east of the Luzon Straits. For a time, the Brisbane boats did off the eastern coast of Luzon, Samar & Mindanao, with Truk and Palau being "shared" assignments with boats going to / from Pearl for re-fits.

Thanks for the additional information fellows. We really appreciate you helping zero-in on the issues.
