two strange bugs.

gutted · 10-31-06, 03:10 AM

1. I'm in late '43 now, and it seems everytime i set sail.. my sonar gets reported as destroyed the second i get into my boat. a quick look at the F7 screen and it indeed is being showed as destroyed (/w red font), but it still works. weird.

2. One of my Officers went AWOL. he doesn't show up on the F7 screen at all. In port it still shows me as having 5 officers, but only 4 are visible. what teh hell???

anyone else run into something like this?

To number 2: Was this officer in the damage control compartment? I think I read sth about those officers missing and reappearing later when they were there at the end of a patrol.

The disappearing officer has been present since the game came out. I don't think it was ever fixed.

I'm not sure about your radar issue.

I have experienced problem 1 in the past and never found a 'fix'
