And that darn damage hiss. Seems less loud after removing the crew from battle stations.
Put 'er in reverse and slow that thang down, sir! I'm not certain merc4ulfate where the game picks-up that drop-off speed from, but you used to have be below 3 knots and at All-Stop, didn't you? I accidentally hit "Launch" the other day while doing 6 knots... poor fellers, little legs couldn't keep up with them... ran the raft over, but still got a complete mission. I will look into that though, and it is not in the mission itself. I will usually try to get down below zero knots, even a little reverse and right rudder, and not even get a "sceetch" sound out of them as they launch.

As for them not seeing you from 250 yards at PD, I have no trouble getting IJN fleet vessels to come chase me from 2500-3600 yards... even before I put the periscope up, and then they try to shoot my eye out at 1400. But seriously, the only ships that treat like they treat you, are US ones. If you shoot a torpedo, do they come chase you?

@ s7rikeback & JapLance = thanks. I always get the heavies mixed up there...
