Finally found a convoy wwwoohhoo

[midnightrider1818]

So still playing tmo with rsrdc. This time started my career Dec 7 41 only this time based out of manilla instead of pearl. I did some reading and I know the phillipines are gonna get attacked. My commander tells me to pa troll off the southern tip of Formosa so I do and on Dec 13 I spot a task force. Only thing is they are heading towards Formosa instead of the phillipines. Not sure how I missed them. The dds spotted me before I could get a few fish off so had to go deep and silent. Was able to get to periscope depth and fire off 4 stern tubes and got one dd. Saved the game cause I have to get to bed for work Tom but wow so fun. Does it hurt saving while submerged or saving around a convoy. Also how long should I patrolling around the phillipines for. Will there always be traffic there

I have found that if you save at periscope depth it works OK but near crush depth you can get damage for no reason when you reload.

I have successfully saved in the presence of enemy ships but I avoid it when possible

Ralles ModSoup for TMO_RSRDC_OTC includes a very nice graphics, great sounds but also realistic physics boat (no F1 ships) ... it is a summary of many good and useful modes that you do not have to separately seek and adapt together - a carefree package.
