Open Horizons II Grid patrol problem

HitLuca · 02-13-15, 11:03 AM

I am currently having a problem with the grid patroling using the Open Horizons 2 mod (with grid fix, aside other mods) and i am doing the second mission of the first campaign. I have to patrol the eastern coasts of England and i started with the request of patrol of grid AN5435. I found the place and started patroling but no ships are traversing my area of operations and if i sink the closer ones i don't complete the objective.
Before this i had to patrol another grid but after some time the order changed..
is this normal? I only have to guard that specific location and stay still till new orders or i do something wrong?

Here is a screen of the capitain's log, any help is appreciated

[UPDATE] Now i have been asked to patrol another area so i think i should continue with this, sinking ships entering the 80km radius but i would want to know if i am right or not

Hi HL

Press the Campaign Marker.

Anything inside that patrol boundary should count.

The Grid reference that replaces the yellow ship sinking marker is not essential for you to be in that one place to complete your objective.

It is only a guide as to where you are likely to find your first target.

I never request any missions from the map.

No progress on the bar, this is really strange because i can't understand if i am making progress.. at the poland invasion mission as i sink ships the bar filled up but not now, i sunk oil ships and simple merchants so i don't think that the ship type is wrong.
I don't want to go for hours sinking with no results, so i am considering returning to the stock campaign

Hi HL

If your are having tonnage bar problems this is likely happen whatever you use Stock, OHII, or anything else.

See my tutorial post #188 how you can always work around this problem and carry on with your game.

Hmm, i restarted from the bunker and now the tonnage rises

maybe was because i enabled some mods that corrupted the savegame in some way, by the way thanks for the help

I've seen You-tube videos where the guy has no mods and still has tonnage bar fill-up issues. It CAN be eliminated if you play with U-Play on-line.

Berbster's post about manually adjusting the tonnage can be helpful in getting any credit you missed just set the savegame values to what's found in your captain's log. That CAN be daunting to figure out though and some folks choose not to.

I had some problems but once I went back to playing with U-Play on-line the problem seemed to disappear. You said that you're running the OH mod... Are you also running sobers OH2.5 Kiel Lite mod V4 ? I understand that it also has an impact on the tonnage bar requirements.

With my current Mod loadout when I get areas to patrol, there is usually a follow-up radio message that I receive when I arrive saying how long I need to remain in the area and what the patrol radius of the area is. I've seen 75 KM but I've also seen 200 KM
