... on Tambor, Gar, Balao, Gato class submarines. Cannot manually rotate pin 360 to detect sound contacts since Ai sonarman has a bad case of eardrum puncture..... forever

Hydrophone on S-18, S-42, Porpoise, Salmon, Sargo are working just fine

So what's the thing with first four classes, is it on purpose? Is this unsolvable bug?

It's just like hydrophone is not there. When i click on hydrophone circle to rotate pointer, camera rotation is selected.

I am playing SH4 v1.5 vanilla.

Starting with S-18 on December 1941 after 7 war patrols i accepted gato class submarine. That's about august-ish? 1942. I think to myself great, now starts the fun , but no guys/girls in ubisoft had a different idea on their mind....... game crash on loading save game.
I have tried 2 solutions i find in this forum but non of them worked
1. load save game with boat in base, then load save game that crashes
2. compare corrupted save game with first working save game in save folder and delete all files in corrupted save that are not the same as in working save game folder

Every time i start first patrol with gato class submarine i previously got, i play for 2-3 hours, save with different name, exit the game, want to continue and save is automatically corrupted.

2 patrols with multiple save files are gone, i can load in base but i can't load game where i am on patrol.

Any solutions, and what causes this bug,

i want to avoid further obstacles in my attempt to play trough entire war from start to the end.
