Default Just a word of advise

If you are cruising back to base to rearm and refuel after a long patrol with no fish left in the tubes and happen to hear submarine sighted do not decide to go take a took.

I heard that nice little call. Decided to go take a peek. Thought to myself maybe I would actually see another sub on patrol. Spotted second sub in a loose formation. As I got closer and was just about to determine what type subs they are they are they did a hard turn into me and slipped below the surface. I like the external view on to see things so I decided to go take a peek. On my way over I noticed a few little white lines in the water. Thought I better go look. Was a bit surprised to see a nice little spread coming right at me. Hard to port, flank ahead.. time to leave.

you understand why I'm asking right? I want to ensure that the sub AI is working as intended and that I don't need to go back and look for bugs/errors on my part.

They were enemy. I should have taken a bit of time and got into a position in front of them and really checked them out but I was playing while working and trying to get back to base for a save before quitting.

I must say though that was really cool to see.

I've actually been lucky enough to see 3 friendly submarines in 1 patrol.
