I have version 1.4 of the game, uniform-, emblems- and VIIB texture mods installed (...nothing that should affect gameplay, you know...).

Today I sank a C-2 in Dover, it was the only ship there. Then I looked around, two destroyers coming in from the south, everything fine so far...

But then came bug after bug...

1. Two more burning, half-sunk cargo ships appear out of nothing in the harbour, one burnig, half-sunk destroyer appears from devil-only-knows-where on the bottom of the harbour entrance. (?)

2. While checking my crew-screen, I notice I have four man on the bridge - in periscope depth. (?) :o
Checking the free camera confirms this, four men, several meters below the waves enjoying the view from the conning tower...:rock:

3. The two destroyers coming from the south almost smash into the pier, one heads backwards, then again forward almost crashing into the pier, back, forth, back....and so on... :roll:
...the other drives slowly backwards for a mile or so, when one of my torps hits her ass...

4. The other stoopid destroyer plays his forward-backward game until one of my fish shows mercy by sinking her...

5. Surfaced now I head westwards, noticing impressive coastal batteries - but they don't fire. There, right in front of them I am, 1 mile away, surfaced, an easy prey...they just sit there and do nothing...

So...why is this...does nobody ever test stuff like this ?

I saw the aft half of a T2 or T3 burning on the docks of Halifax yesterday. :shifty:

I remember that was similar in SHII sometimes. Did they used the SHII engine II and upgraded it ?

Happened to me too in 42 once in Dover and the other time in Halifax
