I've had several that were gray because I could make out the flag but the ship ID I couldn't because of bad weather. If you got credit for it, you sunk it. If it is not in your log, then something else got it.[/quote]

Ok, now I see what is meant. I apologize to Elanaiba and Stufer, I misunderstood what you meant by ID, I thought you meant ID it as Allied or enemy. I did ID it but the game wouldn't know that because I am still practicing with manual targeting so that day I just used auto so I could just go out and sink some tonnage. It was one of those moonless pitch black nights, so it's possible. The other two went down red ?? Anyway didn't mean to make a big issue about this, I just get curious about why things happens in a game that are not explained anywhere.
Thanks again for putting up with a noob.
