Just to give more clarity, I sank the British vessel just south of AN 21 in the North Sea (AN 21 was my patrol zone and I encountered a cargo and a passenger/transport on the way there. I left the transport alone and took out the larger cargo ship). But nothing conspicuous about the location, I routinely score more tonnage outside the designated area.

The French ship was on my way back going around the North East coast of Denmark, I was headed for the gap between the coast and the tiny island off the coast. I was surprised a French boat would be in that location, but I'm no history buff when it comes to WWII shipping lanes.

Every boat I saw after that was German. 20-30 km from kiel, right before I'd made my final turn south west, the two german tugboats ran by me in the opposite direction. I don't know if I just ignored my watchman, but the KM snuck up on me from the other side and started firing. If I didn't know any better, I'd swear the game spawned a gunboat right next to me. I'd been tracking those tugs from AT LEAST 2500 yards out and only running x4 time compression. Unless I'm just very rusty, I would've noticed the gunboat had it sailed up to me.

But then again, I still wouldn't have expected it to open fire..

though now i think about it there are a few other things that could cause it like starting the campaign in the wrong flotilla (that happened to me once) or even not rolling SH3C back before activating mods etc.
Yea, it's unfortunate but I guess it's the only option. Seems a bit isolated an incident. Any suggestion on mods and order to install when I re-install the game? GWX 3, SH3C and MEP 4.2 are pretty much required. But it feels like I only installed some of GWX and broke something there.
