Default Renown and sinking neutral

Ahoi,


@ArnoldR
Very interesting :

Did you made these changes in basic.cfg from Cfg folder of Data folder ?
Neutral:1
Allied:1
Axis:-1

In mine it's :
[RENOWN]
RenownReachGridObjCompleted=500
RenownPatrolGridObjCompleted=200
CompletedPatrol=100
NEUTRAL=-1
ALLIED=1
AXIS=-10
WrongShipSunk=-5000
FirstRankRenown=1000
SecondRankRenown=3500
EndCampaign=-5000

Playing via SHCommander with realistic career disabled and start mission at sea + Detection GWX for WAC5 mod.

Did Patrol 15 with new IXC in March-April 1941. Attacked convoy coming from USA in AL grid. There were neutral ships (marked green). Not targeting neutral and launched my 4 bow torpedoes . Can't see resullts because 5 escorts ships rapidly discovered me and makes me crash dive + silent running at 200m. 45 mn dephtcharging. Escape. Sank 3 ships confirmed by log : on the map one marked red, one grey and the last one not marked - I think because I was to deep and / or too far from sinking place. After 1 week returning back to Wilhelmshaven : dead within 20km of basis with finishing patrol at base with no explication. Reload several times, tried at the end to finish same way much nearer to base. Not dead but degradated from Kaleu to ObLt with an approximatevely -4500 in renown for patrol. No explication too from game (BDU). Nevertheless stange game behaviour.
In conclusion I think I must have sink a neutral but it was really hard paid.
Did the patrol again as I really was not agree with this outcome.
Attacking convoys with neutral ships and trying to solve multiple targets especially the more valuables - awlays in the middle of convoys - can have the most worst consequences.

I only miss the lack of information from the game when such things happened.

Patrol logs from game or SHCommander don't mentioned the nationality of ships too.


Greetings
