If I save my game and then come back to it later while I'm near the convoy (like in visual range) will this cause all the ships in the convoy to lose their waypoints, or even worse things like CTDs and corrupted save games?
Once you've intercepted convoy is the general rule to play through as long as it takes to attack it and then get clear of what is left?
I'm just wondering, as when the visibility is poor or the convoy is swarming with escorts the whole process can take me quite a bit of time.

1) I find saving games in the presence of other ships to be a crapshoot. Usually it works ok for me, but 1 in 20 fails. As a result, I save fairly often, at least 1-2 every game day, when it is safe.
2) The waypoints question is interesting. In harbor, they do lose their waypoints, so why wouldn't they in open sea? Of course, you wouldn't necessarily notice.
