When you do a Status Update, it takes into account your current location, and assigns the next objective based on that, and not on where you are "home port" based. It is possible, being a CenPac sub and in the CenPac side of the Luzon Straits, to be assigned a South China Seas objective if you call in a Status Update while north of Luzon. The game has no idea of Command divides like SoWesPac or CenPac, and just uses 1000km or 1200km, or whatever the DynamicMiss.cfg file's entry has to base those assignments on. You wouldn't even have to do that Area F7 in Makassar Straits anyway, especially if you're still sinking ships like you had been. The F7 renown is at most 300 points. Just head back for Pearl, and ignore Lockwood's assignment and get back to English's authority area...  - good screenies, btw, and thank you for that. |
Thanks. I learned something. When I get the mission complete icon, I usually send a status update, thinking I'd get a new mission from the home base. I see now that the mission I get sent is for a nearby area.
I guess the thing to do, especially after a transfer is wait for 'them' to send a new message, OR go north of Luzon and send my status.
Again, Thanks for all your hard work..pass it on the team too.
