Except of course that it's SWMBO, because "Who" starts with a "W".

In case you've ever wondered where it comes from, check here.

Of course you are right (not looking at what I typed), I used to like old "Rumpole of the Bailey" that where I remember it from

Update: i have discovered some strange things while checking my captain journal, the ships that weren't counted have some strange numbers in the date place, while all other have the right date on them...may be this the cause? i am actually checking game files to find out where this numbers are located..

the image was made with paint...so...you know, #nohate

Hi HL

Your picture shows a classic game corruption.

Always check in the Captain's Log (Hat) immediately each ship sunk has been correctly recorded.

This should be something like 1939-12-11 (Year Month Day).

If you see 0000-00-00 or anything other than a date then you have a game corruption.

As long as you have not had a Autosave In Game save then use the Esc Key and go back to the Main Menu.

Exit to the Desktop.

Exiting to the desktop at this point will stop your corruption from being updated.

Load the last save and start again.

If this fails to solve the problem and you get another corruption then you have the option of doing the following.

Use the Esc Key to go to Save Game.

You will see Autosave In Game (AIG) and Autosave Enter Base (AEB).

Delete all AIG's for the patrol you are in and any Manual saves if you made any.

You now have 2 choices >

1. Use the last AEB save.

2. Start a New Campaign.

If you decide on option 2 then delete the AEB save and then Exit to the desktop before starting again so your Game is updated.

You may have to start a New Campaign depending what action you took when you discovered the corruption.

If this happens again always come out of the game so it cannot save it as this will give you the chance to use the last saved game again.

I always have 0000-00-00 (or similar nonsensical ) date but again, when I sink some ship that tonage bar "thing" is properly updated...

Hi vdr

Yes, you are not alone as i have seen this reported by others who also said that there tonnage bar updated.

It does not make sense, as this corruption can still work the tonnage bar but not record the details correctly.

By the way I'm in the same situation as vdr, corrupted ship data and bar update (works like a charm as soon as I disabled online mode). Do you think that if I finish the mission and end the patrol the next mission will have fixed data?
