Seems like I'm seeing this more and more since the last couple of RUB versions - happened again as I was leaving Wilhelmshaven earlier today - my escort abandoned me as we were heading out of the inner harbor and decided to hit the docks real hard - see below for the result:
I saw this happen several times before as well, though they usually just ran aground when we were leaving Kiel before. Fortunately, I didn't hit any mines on the way out on my own this time, but if I do when this happens again I think I'm gonna have to make an exception to my DID rule.
Is there some minimum distance you have to stay away from these guys? I was not paying a lot of attention this time 'cause I was testing some menu text changes and may have gotten a bit close to the escort - around 300m I think. Maybe he freaked out thinking I was gonna ram him - he must have heard that destroyers don't fare well against these Type VII can openers
