Sorry I still think the AI has serious issues. Especially convoy and port patrol AI's. Namely Convoy escorts wont peel off during an attack and search the area, making them just another merchant with guns in the convoy. And port AI wont react to attacks. I just went into scapa flow and sank 3 ships, not a single patrol broke their normal patrol pattern to search the area. Youd think with the HMS Hood capsized, a heavy cruiser split in half and a troop ship sank, that maybe an alert would of went out or something. Even if i wasnt detected (it was 3am and very stormy) youd think the ships in the harbor would scatter...but nah..they just stayed put and the patrol boats continued on as if nothing happened.
On a funny note though, leaving the harbor i fired my last torp at one of the escorts from long range, I just missed him, it was one of those moments when you say UGH! out loud because you missed by what seemed like a freaking inch, the torp was on slow speed, and it entered that passive sonar detection ring...and the destroyer saw it apparently, and chased after it, lucky it never caught up with it.
