Thanks for the replies. Yeah, it seems that saving at less than 30 km from a sunken ship is a bad ideea. If the water is too shallow, the save bugs. Any subsequent save will share the same fate. It's not about the land mass, as I can load saves perfectly. For example I always save when i start a mission and I never had problems with those. However, the respawning convoy ships did not appear after a load. On convoy runs I never save before the DDs go beyond visual range because of the "surfaced at 20m below" bug. Yet the bug happened on each and every covoy, sometimes even after a few hours. I spied 2 ships, previously sunk as they rejoined the convoy (from a 90 degree angle, imagine the sight of all the other ships dodging for their lives). After that they were sunkable again
