Hi.
Problem sorted! I ended up having to resume a previous save (which according to you was cheating) BUT, as I had not been involved in any action and actually finished the patrol in question, I felt somehwat cheated by the game myself

So I reloaded the most recent save I made whilst still out at sea. Luckily I had actually saved when I was creeping away from the convoy after firing the last of my torpedoes.

I then spent the next 2.5hrs trying to evade a couple of destroyers who were gaining somewhat limited contact. When they did eventually me, I got hammered and took a direct hit to the conning tower & radio room, rendering my radio man and hydrophones man

The explosion took they're lives, but luckily the damages were able to be controlled and despite heavy flooding we just about kept the compartment from totally filling.

as I closed my session we were somewhere SW off lands end having run into the outskirts of yet another convoy! but with escorts around and a heavy sea, I was not about to use my deck gun to reek havoc, instead just kept them on the outskirts of the mist...

Thanks for your help tho!

I think in future I may choose not to use SH3 commander, which BTW has updated my captain's status to "at sea during patrol 1"
