Ships running aground easy targets???

[aloe1]

:arrgh!: Hi has anyone else seen this i was sat off rotterdam lurking for the unsuspecting british ships and they were running aground such easy targets zero degree shots whilst surfaced ?? is this a bug as they just seemed to be slightly off course to go to this port ???

There is a stock SHIII bug where ships will run aground if their path is not plotted accurately in te .SCR files.

Also if you save close to the port the ships lose their waypoints and end up on the beaches.
