View Full Version : The Little Trawler That Could

I use the convoy attack academy mission to test new mods and such. Playing this "testbed" mission many many times (because it loads quickly) I have noticed that the trawler has the uncanny ability to zero in on my sub after I make the attack from sometimes 4000 meters away. I set up my shots and leave the shooting area because of the steam wake. Long after the DD is gone (either I or the trawler kills it:roll: ) the little tug-like bastard will make a B-line for me no matter how quiet I am or how far away he is. Yes, silent running with 50 RPM's and he still will make a line for me correcting for my heading changes and ending up right over me. Now I CAN lose him later but the initial area search always right over me.

Bottom line: Me thinks the AI cheats a little in "guiding" the DD's to the right area.:down:

Oh....almost forgot...GWX 2.1 <-----but I don't blame GWX because this trend has always been there. Maybe just the Academy mission is messed up??

No, it isn't cheating. You just keep getting caught up in it's nets! Remember your the fish that the Royal Navy rejects!:dead:
