Lifer guard pick up is really funky (really messed up).
You must cruise by the smoke very slow and center the pilot in the binoculars and than click the life ring icon in the orders bar.
If you're playing stock the cross hairs will turn red but in TMO there are no cross hairs so you just have to guess. Sometimes you can't see the pilot and you have to guess that also.

I like the lifeguard things but the pick up thing is really messed up, takes the fun out of it especially in bad weather.

When you drop off your agent, don't be surprised at the sudden banging noise. It is just the boats knocking together. But it does sound loud!

Yeah, I used to think that it's supposed to represent the boat hitting bottom. It's just the wrong sound effect altogether. If something was that loud during a spy insertion, searchlights would be up all over the place and the mission would be over
