Spy Mission

Hi, Newbie question: I am in the scenario where I have to drop a spy on an island. I have done this and it says "Mission Completed" and the mission indicator on the map has turned gray. However I can't seem to end the patrol. I know I took off from Brisbane in a new sub but I can't end the patrol anywhere and I have traveled the seas for many hours visiting every port but the End Patrol button stays gray and I can only Refit or Postpone. Any help would be appreciated.

Make sure you have installed patch 1.4. It's likely your original port has been over-run or you missed seeing the message from HQ your message has changed. Look carefully at the map. Your new port has the tilted blue anchor. You should also radio in a report when you complete a mission.

Hey thanks Pv. Yeah I didn't know about the slanted anchor and my base had been moved to Freemantle. One of the few ports I hadn't visited. Still I sunk 150,000 tons of shipping so it wasn't a complete waste! Thanks again.

It's also a goof idea to scroll through your radio messages from HQ once in a while. Go back in the history and you'll probably spot the order to change base.

Thank 1.4 Patch for no more messing round, I was based at Brisbane then without no report of a change I found I was no longer based there. So I checked the map and saw I was moved to Fremantle, most likely to many Bar punch ups.
