Default Not getting credit for sinking in GWX2.0

I just had one of my best kills. It was a Modern Tanker and I hit it right below the first mast. This set off a spectacular chain of explosions from the bow to the stern. The entire ship became engulfed in flames, it was quite a site, however, I did not get any credit for it. I saw the ship quickly sink through the periscope and that's it, no message "she's going down" or anything. The weather was very calm, absolutely no wind or rain or anything so it couldn't of been that.

Perhaps it was a neutral ship?
:hmm:

happend to me also. It happend in calm water, a moderate tanker neatly hit in the middle and sunk like a brick, I hear the crew say "Ja......." but no sunk message and nothing listed, there goes 4500tons. Seems like a bug.

Either neutral or a zombie. Did you sink its twin in a nearby location?

This is a bug that allready existed in the stock version of SH3. As far as I know there is nothing to do about it.
