attacked a convoy

I for sure sunk 2 ships and damaged the other one. I didn't get a red ship icon when they sunk on the navigation map. Do you have to be watching them sink or something. When they sunk I was at 150 meters. Also when I saved the game I don't think it counted for my tonnage. Sh3 with Grey wolves

sunk "plots" don't allways show up on your map. Especially if your deep. But they come up in your log.

Ok good deal I noticed too though that when I saved the game the screen that comes up and tells you all your stats so far didn't show my tonnage either I don't believe

You can hit the K key to bring up the captain 's log. This will tell you definitely what you've sunk and the tonnage.

You have to be within visual or hydrophone range of the ship when it sinks to get credit. I don't know if your hydrophones have to be working or not, but I would guess they do. You, personally, do not have to watch or hear the ship sink. It is enough that one of your crew sees or hears it. I don't know how radar figures into all this, if at all. I've never played that late into the war, and German radar sets didn't really have any longer detection ranges than hydrophones, anyway.

You can go to the radio and send a report that will show how many ships you've sunk and your tonnage.
