i am pretty sure i already know the answer to these but please, humor me:

did the stock sinking/damage mechanics make a comeback in 1.9? most merchies i encountered blew to bits after a single torpedo hit, broken in half and all that. quite a change after the slow agonizing deaths i was used to.

second, i seem to be detected by merchies even submerged, at night, sparingly using the scope. this happened while patrolling during the second half of 1944 in a narwhal. i DID use ahead full and standard during the approach and i seem to remember that merchants get hydrophones late in the war, though i don't know if that was a TMO or RFB thing. or it's possible i screwed up something during mod installs.
