Odd .. have you searched the surrounding areas? Should be there though. I had a good run last night.. right at 220,000 tons sunk .. 2 battleships, one being the Yamato that took 11 torpedoes to sink .. and two carriers .. one heavy cruiser and others. I had to end around to get that last Battleship with my last two torpedoes, it'd already absorbed three from earlier. The time frame in game is January 1944 and have promoted up to a Balao class sub.

Similar problem, lots of tankers and a couple freighters, but no BB's. Radar'd the surronding area and found nothing.

Hm...check the mission file again, the Fuso in particular (or whatever BB is supposed to appear). Check to see if, by any chance, DeleteOnLastWaypoint is set to true. If it is, set it to False and the ships should appear. Don't do this when not docked however!

Well that doesn't really help me to drive back to Pearl, edit the misson file and then head back to that port.
