I was thinking (hoping) the game would have a database being a dynamic campaign, and would keep the ships in the database. If the ship was sunk, it would be registered in the database when you return to port, thus when you leave port, the game would read the database and if the ship were registered as sunk from a last patrol, it would not spawn in any future patrol.
But I guess that's just blissful dreams, huh ?!
