Mission Help Request [10.000 topics read]

[5n4fu1]

Ahoy skippers,

So, i feel kind of stupid to ask this question now, specially since you [and other forums] had tons of more or less the same topics before.. but i can't get the Coastal Waters Mission cross to turn BOLD..

I finished the mission objective [25k tons sunk - lite campaign mod], i received a message saying mission complete with a green checkmark, no more orange on the map.. mission progress bar is full except for a tiny bit at the end..

when sending a status report it just tells me to continue patrol.. i went to homebase anyways since i have no "sink here" symbol visible anymore..

back in Kiel [has the blue submarine icon] when asking for my mission, i get the same talk as before, displaying the same 2 missions.. i can't request coastal waters anymore, though.. yet the cross is not bold and the progress bar is only almost full..

so now i'm thinking to load the "arriving at kiel" file and just return to the british east coast as i read something about roaming the mission area for 3 days? not sure about that because after roughly 3 days i got a new area assigned [where i sunk another merchant leading to the green checkmark and vanishing the orange "sink here" symbol]...

i also read that a cracked version of SH5 causes missions to misbehave.. i just want to make clear that i am not using such a version but a legitimate [still cheap] SH5 Gold Edition and opened up an uplay account just for sh5..

any help or hints on how to proceed here are much appreciated..

It would seem logical that if your tonnage bar is not totally full then you have not completed the task.

If you complete your mission early you cannot start a new one until you reach the next mission starting time.

I think this is a problem with the 'lite version' less to do but the same time scale!

Thank you!

Might be the lite version indeed.. I sunk ca 48k in the assigned region, now taking into account that the original requirement is 50k [and 25k in the light version], it seems possible that the tonnage bar is still tied to the original requirement and not the modded one, hence displaying as almost full?

I could request the other of the first 2 displayed missions when in the dock at Kiel [the one regarding the south western supply routes], just not Coastal Waters.. might be that it's cleared in the mod, but not yet in the unmodded part of the game [i don't know too much about the inner structure of it]..

I played this a very long time ago and everything seemed ok at the time. I have just read the Lite 1.2 readme and it takes everything into account, so you should not really be having problems!

Well, i'll be shipping back to the coastal line now, resupply at Helgoland en route..
Since there's no orange symbol anywhere i'll just roam the area for a cpl of days and will sink whatever i spot.. will post here if i have news.. thx again for your commitment!

If you finish your patrol too early select, "End Patrol" go to the officer and start the new patrol even though it will still be your old one.

When on the bridge go to the "Anchor icon" and select "End Patrol"

Go back to the officer and repeat until you have made up enough days to start your new mission.
