Never yet tried from that location in the office though i will even though it means waiting till docking.
In the main menu where i have tried it seems straightforward .... select the changes with appropriate ticks then press save changes then exit by pressing BACK .... that seems the only possible procedure yet when reloading a save the settings are again 42% ...... i dont understand how and why this happens.

Look more closely at what ETR3(SS) wrote. The "Main Menu" Options screen controls your Gameplay options for the Single (Quick) missions, Quick Patrols and Multi-Player missions. When you are on Patrol in a career, as it sounds like your are, the only settings that "follow" you from the Main Menu into the campaign are the display settings and the audio settings. The GamePlay options will be set to whatever the "default" for the game / mod are, which may well be different from what you set on the Main Menu. When you get back into Port and in the Captain's Office and at the desk, look left toward the window and click on the radio console as ETR3(SS) wrote, and you have another set of Option available. Each career you have running can have its own set of GamePlay options, and you would still have independent control over the Single Missions and Patrols as well. It is somewhat confusing initially, but really is one of the better ideas the had in the UI for the game.
