BTW, Welcome to SH4 and Subsim.

Thanks. I've had the game for a whole, but have only recently had a computer that would play it.
I'm still not entirely sure what is happening, or if what I'm seeing is what I think I'm seeing; but...
Exfiltrating from a Drop the Agent mission, I draw the attention of a DE/Subchaser, and a gunboat. I evade the DE/SC, and then lose sound contact with it. I go F11 to see what the situation is, and I see the DE's stern upended and slowly settling. The gunboat has moved off as well. I did launch a torpedo at the DE, but it was a total snapshot and it missed. I scratched my head and did not curse my good luck, chalking it up to maybe a hiccup in game play.
The next time, I'm playing the Midway mission and I go F11 just in time to see a DD scream past me, while settling by the stern as it's also launching life rafts. It was then that I began to wonder about possibilities, having watched two DDs earlier barely avoid colliding with each other, and thinking that the game may allow for early-war ineptitude on the part of the IJN with regard to things like getting the right depth setting on the ash cans, maybe.
Thought I'd throw it out here and see if anyone has seen anything similar.
