I've made a test scenario where a red sub is on an ASW mission.
A blue sub enters its patrol zone end after being detected it gets trailed even outside designated area.
Though investigating contacts outside patrol area is unchecked.
Not sure why the red sub still follows the blue one.
Can you have a look?

Is it not supposed to stay inside the Prosecution area?

For aircraft I set the ignore option to to on and for ships and subs, I typically leave it off. Just my thoughts on it.

I'm running Build 847,1 with the Database 446.

By not ignoring the plotted course the red sub first finishes it's plotted course and then starts trailing the blue sub.

Is there any way to keep the red sub inside prosecution area?
The red sub is supposed the chase the blue one out of a specific area.

I was not sure whether it's a bug.
I will do some more tests and see what alternatives are possible.

Thank you for taking time!!
