Odd really as they will do anything to avoid colliding with each other

It was at most an avoid-collision thing. These groundings happen without any sub being detected. Therefore I reckon it's something that one can do... something, with.

Done

I just snuck into Larwick sub base, avoiding the patrolling destroyers, lined up a depot ship then S-type sub, hit both with three fish then waited for the inevitable onslaught of rushing destroyers - nothing. There was one the was docked, manned, with no obstructions in front that just sat there. The two that were close to land were just doing the lazy forward/reverse thing, no grounding. I got pinged, but that's it...

Was this fixed in GWX 2.1? :hmm:

I went in. 2 or 3 destroyers grounded themselves. There was a sub sunken at a wharf (manned underwater

-it was terrible storm & near zero visibility - I think the waves sank it), a docked destroyer which I sank, and an ASW trawler or similar vessel which I slammed with 2 torps so it was a raging inferno - but it never sank....

Don't think I'll go there again, however navigating past the nets was great fun using the obs scope, and I'm pretty sure there was a submerged wreck I had to avoid as well.

It's just the AI that stinks, not GWX.

That's too bad and takes the fun and challenge out of penetrating harbors. It's a shame that the GWX team spent time creating and populating harbors only to have the AI fail.
