Do ships that have taken torp damage continue to acrue damage over time, or is there some rule that if the ship survives for X amount of time, it becomes repaired?
In other words, is it possible for a ship to sink hours or days later and get credit for it, even if you and your sub are long gone?

Welcome to Subsim, Slick Willy (sorry, couldn't resist
). If I'm not mistaken, you have to be within rendering distance (sorry, don't remember how far that is at the moment) when the ship sinks or you don't get credit for it. I don't think it becomes repaired, so if you stay close and can catch up to it later on, it should still be damaged and closer to sinking.
