Originally SH3 was going to be like SH2 - a series of scripted missions with patrol objectives to be completed. When the community made it clear that we wanted an AOD-style dynamic career mode, they rewrote the entire thing ( ). What remained was the 24-hour patrol objective. Some people think that they are supposed to do that and go home, when actually it's just the start.

On the other hand, real kaleuns were expected to stay in their patrol grids until further orders, even if they never saw any ships there.
