Sublynx, thanks a lot! I appreciate the help. I will say, the "torpedoes not guns" order is pretty specific; it says specifically: "Ships are not to be boarded for examination. They may be stopped by gunfire, and their papers examined, but must be sunk only with torpedoes. U-boats are not to engage in gun actions with merchant ships."
Now, I realize that it's impossible to be fully realistic, and it would be silly to try, as in real life U-boats were ordered at this point to stop ships and inspect their documentation, as this order implies, and obviously Silent Hunter even with GWX doesn't simulate that.
However, the order does seem very clear that deck guns are not to be used on targets, and I'm just wondering if that order ever gets rescinded.
Anyway, thanks a lot!
