Sp tyhe problem must be with SH4. I have reloaded 2 saves back and am going forward again.

There are differences in the way DA II and DC 1.0 report damage. DC 1.0 sorts compartments as compartments and weapons/equipment as weapons and equipment, as per the structure of the saved game files. DA II reports them as they appear in the game (You'll notice that some of the compartments in DC appear as equipment on DA II.) To be honest, I don't know which way is correct. One of the main reasons why I did it differently is because I've seen cases where DA II wasn't reporting any major compartment damage, yet I couldn't submerge without my sub coming apart at the seams. My thinking was maybe it was because SH4 was reporting some compartment damage as weapon/equipment damage (and DA II was mimicking this for consistency) so that critcal damage was going "unnoticed." Unfortunately, you've proven that neither way prevents this thing from happening! Now all I can say is that I hope either of these programs at least *cuts down* on the number of occurences.

Oh, and another silliness revisited:
I just had my deck gun blow up on me for no reason and injure my deck gun crew. It's the first timethat's happened since SH4 1.3. Maybe a training accident?
