Extrange behaviour.... is it a knowed bug ?

[Redwine]

My first patrol where i back home with dead crew.

I was fighting in a canon duel with a merchant, when a Liberator made a quick pass over me, my creww shot down it but the Liberator dump a rain of bullets and kill all my 3 crew at deck gun. All them was saliors.

Finally i arrive to Lorient with my IX D2, dock at pier, and finish the mission. All fine.

When i attempt to run the following mission, the last saved game at Lorient arrival says ...... "Dead".

What happens ? Was i one of the 3 dead sailors ? :hmm: I dock the ship normally at Lorient !

I sunk 106000 tons of merchants, it is near to imposible in War Ace campaign files, because you need a satellite to found a convoy in these campaign files .... you only found task forces.

I losse 106000 tons .... , was my best mission... i never sunk too many big ships before.... I sunk a Hospital ship with deck gun... no torp expended on this big ship.

Do some body know any reason for this behaviour ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

It could be that the hospital ship, with it's negative renown, gave you a negative renown upon returning to base... I don't know if you are forced to retire, or simply killed by Bdu... That will explain the "dead" ending

I also think that this is the cause.

or maybe they shot you after a quick court martial decision

did you sink a Hospital ship ? with the gun ??


this could be the cause of yours problems ,.. a big penalty in renown

and the big problem ...and a court martial when you arrive at port :




or a possible a mutiny in your boat


:rotfl:

I can believe ! that was the problem...

Well, i note it was the hospital ship after destroy it, looking at the kapitan log (Key K) i had sonar contacts, follow them, when near in the map, i aproach them at my deck gun, when was at about 6000m, i filled it with shells.... and wait for the ship go down, i never take some time to identify it, , was a big ship in red on the map.... 106000 tons losed .

Thanks for help...

Yeah... i know, these are the first campaign file i play including the hospital ship, i must to be ware in the future.... but i am not sure if the ship i sunk with my deck gun was it, the hospital ship.... i soupose it because was the only extrange ship i remember, i remember now, i had used TV and TIV homing torps, and note the TV not always catch the target you aim. I made a night attack, i never aimed a hospital ship, but a TV can been homed by it. :hmm: Some times TV take hands of a target at their pleasure....

But sure i sunk it, because i seen it into the kapitan log (K) and the campaingn finish with ... if i dont remember bad more than 25000 negative renown, i asume it was a bug....

Question... what about enemy (red icon) passenger liners ? They was used as military ships but.... are there in the game some of them with no militar use ? I dont want another military court !

How to know if they are used as passenger liner or troop/ammo transport ?

This push back that old sentence : " in the sea there is only two types of ships....subs and targets ..."

I neeed to use the recognition manual often in the future....
