Had you Saved Kongo Otto, and upon Loading the Save, did not have gauges? Or had you ordered a dive, and noticed that the gauges were "black' blank, or stuck at the 12 O'Clock position? etc.

We want to minimize bad "Saves", and it might well be related to the loss of gauges, and what happens might only depend upon your proximity to a certain IJN ship, sub or plane - maybe a shore installation... Thanks

Saved the game while on surface and on reloading said save to continue gaming the gauges were stuck in the 12 o'clock position, all of them also the needle of the hydrophone wasn't moving anymore.
Position was almost exactly the same as in Forumuser Torpedo's screenshots at the Kii Suido. Havent' chased anything was just cruising there in search of enemy shipping. No enemy warships were spotted by crew neither were aircraft spotted.
Went back to a previous save which was before entering Kii Suido but it also had become corrupted.

I went to Kii Suido after finishing my patrol objectives and receiving the usual "do free hunt or go home" message, travelled from Truk to BUn go Strait and from there to Kii Suido, no problems with gauges before saving game in both Truk or Bungo Strait.
