It's the majority opinion that the manual is much to be desired. Thank God for everyone in this forum sharing all their tidbits.

what about this patrol area business? I stopped and sat on the marker for a few days I also sailed around the marker and through it for a few days and still the patrol is incomplete.

I have a working theory about this too. I'm wondering if it's tied in with sending a status report?? How can the home base know where you are if you don't tell them?? In my current mission I was assigned to one patrol area, while cruising out there, I got into the habit of sending a daily status message. When I got the patrol area it immediately grayed out, then I got sent to another patrol area and it didn't go grey. But I realized that I hadn't been sending any reports like I was. Somewhere between here and there, I hit the escape key to save/end the game and it said that patrol area was complete! I'm thinking I must have sent off a message, which does report your position. A possibility??
