The time of day might be helpful also, but if you are off of the Yokosuka (Tokyo) area, it may well be that "41a_Jap_Fast_Merchants_002" group. It has DD, DE and Subchasers assigned to it, but at low-percentage rates in the 41a layer. Yet, there are Okinoshima Minelayers and Light Cruisers assigned to it also, and none of them are set to "Escort" duty. As the group leaves the bay, it can either go South on one of two routes, or West along the coast. If it goes South, it can come back one of two routes. Once it gets back to near Japan, it once again can either go home, or West along the coast, or South on either of the two routes. When it comes back East, it can either go home, or South on either of the two routes. There are over 1700 waypoints in its route, and it has been the source of quite a few issues... The <Delete> key sounds to me like the easiest course of action... However, it is part of FotRS... We'll give it a few more chances, but I'm going to eliminate the warships in the Convoy for the first layer, or else see if it works setting them to "Escort" service. I must go "Test" my game now...
