same thing is true with torpedos. sometimes i see a nice explosion hole and sometimes all i see is the explosion but no hole. yes, i know what you're thinking that the torpedo was a dud but when you see an explosion and the ship sinks, then the torpedo was no dud...it just didn't leave a graphical hole in the side.

so, why the apparent inconsistency? is this a ship-to-ship variance or is there something more subtle at work here.

the world wonders. well, at least a small part of the world.......
It's all down to the .zon files, and whatever damage zones have been created by the author of the ship in question.
