Hi sailor seems you finally got hooked with pig boats :P

First patrol out out of Trondheim , minor bump getting out of the harbour (I need to eat more carrots .. the Arctic is very dark )
Yes, exiting Trondheim requires a bit of practice: Set time compression to 4x (Eliminates waves) and speed to halbe fahrt voraus. As soon as the Boot is out of the pen, turn left with full rudder until you point to the exit of the harbour (There are two peaks of mountains visible right on the exit...point the bow there). Once out of the harbour turn starbord (right) and plot your course out of the fjord in the map. BTW would love to see again that screenshot you did with hi-res textures for the fjords

Reach patrol zone ... no targets .
BDU will ask you to return after four weeks in patrol (It's also random, but should be in around 4 weeks), but it might happen that you don't locate any convoy in the meantime. Do you stay that long in the patrol area?

Dive to avoid an enemy aircraft .

All clear. Order boat to "surface" . Conning tower emerges above water then sub mysteriously and involuntarally goes back to periscope depth.

All attemps at surfacing ( including blowballast ) fail.

Batteries run out ... sub comes to a halt at periscope depth.

CO2 levels rise . Crew asphyxiated .
Don't think this has much to do with the campaign :hmm:
