So I'm in my Gato in the sea of Japan, lucked out on the way and found myself in the path of a taskforce with no less than 6 CVs, sunk 3 of em. Later on in the patrol, happened upon a huge convoy and sunk another bucket load, total tonnage 86,000 and I'm outta fish.
Since it was midnight I decided to save the game just as I'm leaving the area, 300ft down, 2kts, DD escorts depth charging an area about 1/2 a mile away.
But then after I'd saved I thought no I'm off back to Pearl, it won't take that long.
Leave the area, surface and head back. 3 game days later I get an air contact out of nowhere, crash dive but before I go under take a massive hit to the superstructure resulting in a sunk sub.
And decide to go to bed.
This afternoon I load up the save game I mentioned earlier and here's the situation: I'm at 300ft, 2kts, with massive damage and flooding to all compartments. 30 seconds later I sink.
Huh?
