Notorious Time Compression Bug

You do not have to start a new campaign or patrol. Works the same for SH3 and SH5, too.

Correction: Not multiples of 2, in powers of 2. 2, 4, 8, 16 etc.
Sorry about the correction, just an OCD thing.

Thanks BigWalleye, I'll look into those mods...

Sailor Steve - point taken. "Shouted down" was unduly harsh. And I expect to be disagreed with: that's what makes online forums (fora?) worth having

Cheers.

I understand that many forums are populated by people who go on the attack over anything they disagree with. We try to be better people here, though we (myself included) sometimes fail.

Neither! The British subs based at Malta 1940-1943 probably had the toughest task of any sub service, shallow crystal clear sea, a formidable anti-sub opponent [one of the few things the Italians were good at] and either boats that were too large [T and O classes] or boats that could not carry enough torps [S and U classes]. They had to paint them Blue to try to hide them from the air the water is so clear! Their base was under constant air attack to the point that they were even driven out once. The losses were nearly as bad as the U-boats were later in the war. Now that would be a Hard campaign. Complete a patrol only to be sunk at base. SINK ROMMELS SHIPPING!!

Second that!
