What exactly does patrol an area mean? How big an area? Is there a specific pattern. I have yet to complete a mission that says patrol an area.

I've done the same thing the original poster said and it still says I did not complete the mission.

I even thought that saving the game might screw up my missions completion but that doesn't seem to be it either.

Give me the photo recon, deploy spies or saving downed pilots any day vs patrol an area.
1. You get the "return to Base" message only if you report a convoy or TF (I think). You don't have to return to base, it's for immersion purpose only.

2. Patrols (binocular icon) means that you have to patrol the area around the icon until it's greyed out. In stock SH4 the diameter around the icon is about 50nm. When you use RSRDC then the radius is 150nm most of the time.
