Thx very much for the info; I will watch this much closer ensuring to stay in the area for the noted time and zoom the map.
However, as I said I'm also not receiving official notification( message ) I've reached the patrol area, additionally when I save the game the next window telling me types of ships and tonnage thus far, indicates "Incomplete" for reaching patrol area.
I will create several careers and watch this in detail.
Thx again for the replies.
Cheers
Bob
