I hade allmost finish my 3 mission. the 2 first mission i didnt had any enemy shipping contakt beside airplane. i use the new campaing layer mod. great mod. anyway..my 3 mission..WOW...ran in to a convoj, happy time. I manage to sink 2 mercain in the first attack. reloaded and made a new attack. aimed at a tanker. but a destryer did get in the way and toke both my torps and sank. 2 other destryoer started to look after me and i manage to fire 2 more at the tanker and did only hit with one, but it did blow up in a nice bang. went deep and did manage to sneak away. that what the only thing that i did find on mission 3. so after the fuel sad to me..time to get back. i plottet the course and went in to max tc. not long after that...i had sunk and all men lost.

guess what..a SMALL DAM ILAND IN MY WAY...and i had missed that when i did plot the course. the iland was like a pixel big. if i had zoom in i shoudent missit. i was to lazy. great mission in my world..and i made a big fat misstage. and i cant even blame the game for it.

I have done that before

TC'ing along and bang....the watch crew was sprawled all over the beach. The sub did not sink....it was up on land

Yup, when you plot a course where you're going to go into high TC, you need to zoom in on that course and look along its length before you go into TC, so you don't hit any small bits of land in there you didn't see at first.

Had the same problem. From then on I tend to stick to darker parts of the map.

"Sir, we have flooding!"
"Japanese minefield?!?"
"Err, no. Hawaii."
