You can find this out from the script

At the moment the equation is quite simple. If you claim less than what you actually sunk, BdU believes you (--> you get what you reported, i.e., less than what you really achieved). If you over-claim to a certain amount (I don't want to give the true number. You can find it out yourself), BdU also accepts your results (--> you get more than what you really achieved). If you over-claim even more you get less than what you actually achieved and if you completely exaggerate BdU does not believe you and you get 0 (see the screenshot above. I did not sink anything, but claimed to have sunk HMS Nelson Actually, I never left the port ).

This could be improved a lot, but I think it does the main job: it forces you to pay attention to what you sink and it creates some uncertainty and excitement at the end of a patrol.
