Meanwhile, destroyers that are following the ships see me, start shooting at me, and I have to escape them without having shot a single torpedo.


Feel likes the torpedo mast has a huge orange flag "IM HERE" as soon it's out of the water, while I'm 1 Km away and trying to keep the mast head as close to the water level as possible by using page up/down.
Yes, same here: Periscope must be used very sparingly ...

In another thread I read that one can identify a ship by pressing Shift+I, when locked on the ship by pressing key "L". However, one must be close enough for key "L" to work ...
