Another point I should make is that something I have seen in another post on SUBSIM ???? mentioned mid-play game crashes when closely engaged (10KM) with any sinking or damaged ships. This I now realize is how several of my commander's crashed mission-plays became corrupt. EXAMPLE: mild weather, ship torpedoed and still afloat... ooops--- I gotta' go now so Save Game. Returning to mission play the next day game gives the Windows 'problem' screen and that mission is now corrupt and unplayable--- ERASE~!

Another example is in real heavy weather while stalking a convoy 10km distance the Watch spots a ship mid-convoy in flames struggling to keep station. No action taken by commander but Save Game results in next play the mission is corrupt and unplayable.

My advice; save, save, save when damaged ships in close proximity or--- bugout and find another convoy and nice weather. Hope that helps.
