Except I decided, for comedy glee, to see if I could repeat my earlier Scapa-Flow exploits in Gibraltar. I rock up, get spotted on the way by aircraft, and basically sail in broad daylight right into the port. 3 destroyers wander off, but don't bother me, and the rest remain at anchor. wut? I spot 3 Didos and a bunch of escorts, and sink 2 of the Didos. Far too easy, but whatever.

Then crazytime happens. A full carrier and BB fleet just randomly spawns inside the base, and starts sailing out towards me. Is this normal? Does the game actually spawn in ships at random places? I mean, I went to Gibraltar to try to pick on some battleships, didn't find any in the port, and then they magically appear? :|

I dislike 'gaming' the game, but if this is how it works, it's worth knowing so in the future I can try to prompt the ship spawn before I sail into the harbour.

What mods are you running .
