A bug? or operator error....

Hi all, I just started running RSRD for TMO last week and had a weird, career-ending, mis-adventure.

I got orders to go patrol the Kiska resupply routes and potentially intercept an expected convoy then end up by refuelling at Dutch Harbor. Well, I missed the convoy, but ended up in Dutch Harbor as instructed. I got the refuel/rearm done with and since it was the middle of the night, I decided to TC until daylight so I could actually see what was up around there (never been up there before). As the clock was spinning, I got POUNDED by something.....100% hull damage,bulkheads destroyed, 3 compartments flooding, all tubes destroyed ect. As my boat was foundering and obviously done in, I noticed the harbor icon up in the corner and out of desperation, I clicked on it. Instantly all the flooding was gone, I still had 100% hull damage and the crew kept up the "stern tubes destroyed, bow tubes destroyed" over and over, until I finally just ended the game and tried to reload it. Every reload attempt gave me a CTD on that career.......so , I just ended up starting a new campaign, but I can't help wondering WTF happened, both at the refuel point-while TC-ing and after.

Anybody else come across something like this?
