Time compression trouble is my guess for an explanation as well.

256x is the highest you can go but when tracking something best only go at 32x once in visual

LOL he had a course that took him to you... without him even having any bad intentions.

but since you did not observe but stuck your head into the sand you realized that only too late.

and since he did not see you headon but from the side probably, your echo in the water was BIG.

so he heard you (no silent running) from afar...

and took a dump on your head.

like any good DD captain would have done.

* DD anywhere close?
-no time compression
-dive to 120
-rig for silent running
-recite Prayers of your preferred religion

You now gained a bunch of experience...

It is a game to savored, not "wolfed" down.
It has a save feature, so use it, and bring your TC down to 64x max. All will be revealed with time to react.
At 256x you are lucky it was not a plane with you on the surface or you would have been dead before you knew it.
