Default Some Questions (Im New)

hey guys,

Im new to Silent Hunter, but i have some (Noob) questions about the game.
1. We have Time Compression but do u guys use it alot ? like start mission => Fast forward to patrol area => shoot a ship down and then again fast forward to next ship. Or do u guys take alot of time to on traveling ?
2. A mission is like sink 50.000 tons of ships in the area, but do u need to sink ships close to the mark on the map of does ship on the whole map counts?
3. Can u guys give me some tips (or guide on internet) about how to engage a ship/convoy? Like is it best to attack in a 90 degree angle?

tx for helping

srry for my bad english

I use TC a lot. For longer distance travel I'll cost around at 1024. In areas where I might get contact 512. In areas where I know there are things 256. And when running home with no weapons 4096!

Though make sure you turn 4k+ off well before you reach your home port, or else you'll likely crash into EVERYTHING.

During combat I'll rarely go over 8x or so. Depends on what's happening.
