How to finish a patrol / complete a mission ?

[Inflatablewoman]

Just to answer my own question, it appears in the mission file;

Radius=100.000000

Now I dont know if that value is in KM or in Nm.

100Km is 54Nm
100Nm is 185Km

I would prefer for the radius from the center point to be in Nm as it gives me more room to roam in. Anyone got any idea what the unit is?

Oh and time, is in minutes?

Time=2880.000000

That would mean I need to be on station withing the 100Whatevers for 48 hours, presuming the 2880 is in minutes?!?!

Anyone confirm this?

This is weird, on my first patrol to the Philipene sea I didn't even get that close to the star and it triped, and when I was assigned to celebes It didn't trip at all.

Yes, it seems it is at least 100km and time seems to be really in minutes so it seems to be 48 hours.
I was patrolling few kilometers from gold star with binos and it was completed after about 1 day and 16-20 hours.
I didnt counted down from time i crossed patrol perimeter (that should be at least 100 km), i started counting down as soon as i hit gold star... So it should be about 2 days.
