I get the objective to patrol the Caroline Islands. I slink around for almost 4 months, sinking 5 merchants. I have only one torpedo in the aft tube left. When I report to PH, I am told to continue with my current objective.
I decided to return to base, where I received medals for the patrol but the screen still said "incomplete." What does it take to complete and does it really matter?

If you had the "sink" orders where you proceed to x and patrol, have to sink shipping, the vessels may not have equaled the required tonnage for SH 4 to consider objective met
Could be a bug in GFO as well.
Try reloading your save draw a circle 50 nautical miles using map tools, sit there (can use time compression) and see if it changes to completed. |
And.... to add to that, just in case your mission orders were to have full autonomy to sink shipping, might peruse & pursue seeing of some point near there, that is like... a choke point & see of some ships rolling through there, that sinking enough... will knock that completion time bell out of the park, as well.
Hope this helps...
