Dangers of Time Compression

Everyone must have had TC mishaps (or you will if you hadn't yet). Cant' really start a patrol until you pass Midway so I TC like crazy to get there, top off, and head west. I set way points from leaving Pearl to just outside Midway's harbor.

I guess when you hit 4 digits for TCing, your PC's response time may be a little inconsistent. I watched the cruise through the map mode and planned to hit F11 once I got close to the harbor. When I did, nothing happened for a few seconds and all of a suddent I hear this horrible sound of grinding metal and my crew hollering out all the damage! Even though my last way point was out in the harbor I must have been moving so fast that the modeled momentum just kept me going and put my whole boat ON TOP of the docks!

Yeah, boys, refit that!
