Well... perhaps some of you can shed some light on these issues.

First of all, how do I complete a patrol mission? I go to the area assigned, and I have done everything I can think of, but I cannot complete it.

Second, after 2+ good torpedo hits, often times a boat will sink so where just a few inches remain above water. Yet sometimes it continues to chug along at normal speed, or sit dead in the water, but not sink. Similarly, I've had boats explode and sit there engulfed in flames, and yet it won't sink and I won't get credit. Bugs? Am I doing something wrong? If I waited for 12 hours, would they finally sink?

Third... What do you do when your crewmen are injured? My entire watch was injured from a good hit. Their average health was about 95/100. They all died. I reloaded and tried switching them to other compartments. Interestingly, the NEW watch crew started to lose health while the old ones maintained stable health. Any clues?

Finally, my antennae got damaged that same time that my crew started to die off. I'd repair it, and then it'd be damaged again. It'd repair it, it'd be damaged again. Etc. They were no boats or planes to attack me, so it seemed like all of my crew and my antennae were just...what? Spontaneously combusting?

Am I just missing something? :\

Thanks in advance for any help.
