dual flags?

In a single mission I encountered a ship with two flags: American and (I think) Brit. Did this really happen or is it a game fluke?

In the background is the infamous unsinkable, splitting ship.

This is not a fluke. I do not know which is which but one flag denotes the ships home port and the other flag is for its destination. I beleive the flags on the ship are in the correct position

The one on the right is Brit navy, and the left is American (merchant or navy).

The American merchant is heading from left to right, and the British flag is flying on the destroyer (moving left to right) that is colliding with the merchie. you can see the aft guns on the destroyer just aft of the merchant's stack

Nice one

Brits going after their own shipping :hmm: Looks like Bernard did get that saboteur position by the British Navy, but again, he's messing up for the wrong side

When I manage to get my ships to split (and with my uber 10 million times more stronger then normal deck gun they always do that) they ussualy sink very rapidly :hmm:

That is one hell of a structural intergity field those merchants are carrying!
