Flank speed bug?

Obersteuermann · 09-05-10, 11:06 AM

Running GWX3, SH3 Cdr, Torpedo Damage Final, No continuous "Ship Spotted" and Reduced Mission Orders.

My crew are refusing to go to flank speed. Whenever I select it, the engine-room telegraph just zips round to 'Stop'. This has cost me one contact (hit flank speed, boat floated gently to a halt, I didn't realise until ten minutes and a cup of coffee later) so I'm really tempted to throw my stokers overboard!

I've had this happen before but only with a damaged boat, and I figured then it was something to do with the damage model. However, on this patrol I've seen nothing except unescorted freighters and the boat's in tippy-top condition. Is this a known bug?
