I'm using LWami latest version and am really struggling with the North Atlantic Convoy mission.

I've finally figured out how to avoid the black jack missiles, just launch chaff.

Two other problems

1) How do you detect the sub to the north. I finally turned on truth and I still can't hear/see him in active sonar mode. I slowed to 1 knot and within 6000 yd and can't hear him or see him on the waterfall?

2) I ended up chasing the kilo away to the north (by accident i'm sure), but the kilo to the south launched torps. WHEN I GET A TORP IN THE WATER MESSAGE BEARING 140, WHAT DO I DO? Run away? I let loose the Nixie stream thingie. Anything else I can do? There's no countermeasures.
