Being the Academy (and since both my periscopes had been destroyed already) I just hit <escape> and went to bed, but in career mode I'd have had to tough it out. I can't see how I could have got myself to a convenient point 50km away from anything so I could safely surface just to save the game (getting the destroyer 5km away would have been nice). Basically, if I get myself in a pickle when I'm in career mode I'm going to have to save when submerged and with DC's raining down.
Leaving the PC on in pause mode isn't an option either, as I spend several days away from home at at stretch and I don't want my PC on while I am away.
Are my career aspirations FUBAR'd before I even leave port? I find it amazing that Ubisoft let such a massive bug remain in the game.

If you follow some of the suggestions listed above, ie. saving on the surface, the 50km rule, etc. you should minimize the risk of a ctd. Unfortunately I don't believe that there is a 100% effective solution to this problem. Each of us has had different experiences playing both stock & GWX (don't know about the other mods as I've never played them).
