That's the time to stop TC and check sonar and get a bearing

You probably do it, but when you need to get the TC down, don't do it step by step, hit F2 and it will take you to the control room and TC will drop to 1 with the click of one button. If you try to slow down with the - key step by step, things are still going fast and you may get within range of DD's before you reach normal time.

This is a true working statement, for I do the same and have never been hit because of being too close because of time compression.

Other stupid mistakes of mine to be hit/sunk yeah, but not TC.
