Sync saves / Empty patrol.

[Saintaw]

Hello, I have two questions, I hope you don't mind...this is a rather old game, my google-fu might be dated.

1- I cannot seem to disable the savegame syncing (I turned the option OFF in Uplay, but the sync is still there). I will move my savegames, but it is tedious.

2- I am on my 5th patrol (Twos), I have been between Iceland and Skagerak, didn't find any taskforce... and actually found nothing at all so far except a few destroyers and trailers (I am now back at the main convoy entry route west of Scotland)... nothing, nada, zilch. I dive at about every 40 km and listen in. Is this normal or have I run into a bug?

2-b (optional, desperate question) - Can I rely on my sonarman to do quick dives and checks at TC32 or do I have to do it manually every time?


Thank you!
