Happened again. For some weird reasons, my game is trapped in some foggy weather loop, so I play only in fog. So I hunt only unescorted ships/convoys.
Last night tracked down a lonely small merchant, sunk her with 1 hit. Few hours latr, got another.. this time a Hig Islander. Sent 1 torpedo that managed to break her engine so the ship stopped. Sent another shot, but she survived the shot. So I parked my boat on the limit of the visibility range, around 600m, and waited.
After about 30 minutes the ship finally start to sink slowly and I get the confirmation for the sinking when I hear a big booom coming from the ship and sudden my boat gets a total burst of damage. Hull down with 8%, every other equipment with 5-6%. All officers gets injuries, but only the radioman, sonar and WO stays in bad condition, others heal after a couple of seconds.
I was at surface, so Im 100% sure that this was not from a plane attack or anything else. I also did a full sonar sweep.. nothing in range. The only thing in common with the previous incident was that my victim was in abandoned state, completely halt and the explosion happened after about 30 minutes she stopped. Maybe this help to figure out why is this happening.
