Stalking Taskforce

Dragon81 · 08-18-14, 09:17 AM

Hi guys,

I shot all my torpedos and I'm on my way home to the east. The BDU told me to send position and status so I did it.
Surprise-surprise shortly after the radio message a Taskforce with 6 Destroyer crossed my way from the north to the south.
I dived fast and stoped the engines to be as quiet as possible.
The Taskforce passed by at my stern and made their way to the south.
But after some time the hydrophone readings won't move to the south anymore.
The Taskforce is keeping their position 16 Km south of my position.
When I move the the east, they move to the east too.
When I move west, they move to the west, always keeping the 16 Km distance.

What are your taktics to escape this stalking Taskforces?

I have installed the "Wolves of Steel" Modpack.

Hello Dragon81.

As far as I remember this is a stock bug, maybe save and reload would help?

Yes it does. The Taskforce is gone after loading the save game!

Yes it was. Mainly because I was not able to increase the time compression higher than 64.
