Mystery damage and flooding
Hallelujah! This happened to me just last night...twice. Admittedly, I'm only playing in '42 right now, but I left Lorient and sailed out of the base into the inlet, turned west towards open sea (passing between the island and the mainland). Bam...same kind of message...then I died. I was using TC 32 at the time (and for those of you following along here, I am also using SH Commander 2.6, which is every bit as cool as 2.5 and I had adjusted some of my TC settings as suggested by some of your comments listed here...ships sighted/plane sighted set to TC 1). So, naturally, since this was a brand new career, and I died less than 5 miles from the docks, I start over wondering what the heck just happened. I kind of assumed I had had a collision with another vessel. So, I start over, and this time sail in TC upstairs...kind of keeping my own eyes peeled so to speak. Again, I here cries of damage and flooding and man down on deck. This time, it is apprent I have somehow run onto something. Quick check from external view, and sure enough, I'm sitting on top of an antisub net stretched across this piece of waterway! I can't wait to get home and look for the feature you mentioned on the map. I kept thinking there must be some way for me to know where my own defenses for my friendly harbor are laid. Seems stupid to kill our own guys, after all.
