I ran the same patrol from first save and saved a couple times during the patrol. All the saves show up as "noon", again. So, what I need to do is pause and never save, apparently. I have to go the full run. So, I gird my loins and I'll find out if the run will work after a computer sleep recovery.
Funny thing is that I didn't have this problem until recently. I wonder if the Windows 10 10H2 / 11H2 update mucked around. Wouldn't hurt to reinstall the whole thing.
