Hello there!

I am often very frustrated about finding targets within patrol zones. Usually I randomly encounter several ships on the way to the patrol zone, or when coming back to port, but once on the patrol zone it is very common that I don't see/hear anyone for several days in a row (at least during the time I am supposed to patrol according to my orders).

What I usually do is setting up a zigzag pattern within the zone, and do a hydrophone survey at 30m, engines stopped, every 2 hours.

Am I doing something wrong or just being very unlucky?

EDIT: I am playing TWOS, by the way.
