Make sure you are completing your objectives. The flag will turn gray once you have done that then while on the surface, send a status report back to SubComPac and they will give you another one.

I've noticed that 'sometimes' (most of the time) after transferring to a different fleet - like to Asiatic, the first mission will be to one of your pre-transfer Pearl fleet's patrol zones. If you've been completing your objectives and want to risk it you could click the anchor icon as soon as you depart and get a different mission. I did that once and my crew were awarded several awards........ strange, but it made them happy and we received different sailing orders.

Happy Hunting!

im using 1.4 with no mods and no expansion.


The patrol turned out to be great, i actually saw convoys in my area!! got about 35,000 tons returned to port and i got the offer for the new sub...wasnt so sure if i wanted to take it because i love my p-class but i decided to take it and got a gato class! I cant wait to patrol with that sub

Oh and my next orders are in the east china sea so i finally got some change

What is/are your EXACT order[s] on the repeat mission[s]?

If you have to drop off a spy or supplies at a certain point around Honshu, you HAVE TO come to an all Engines stop when you get to your destination point and launch the rubber raft in order to get the objective flag to turn to a grey color.

Photo recon gets a little tricky to explain, but minor in nature.

If your orders are to sink enemy shipping around Honshu, you have to remain within a 50 mile radius of the yellow star for a period of 24-48 hours , and then put 20,000 tons of shipping on the ocean floor AFTER/during hanging around the mission objective.

Good luck!

The way it was explained to me is that the mission is assigned to you when you ENTER port not when you leave. So you enter Pearl, get assigned a Honshu mission and that mission goes with you when you transfer. That's why you get to Fremantle and still have a Honshu mission.
