i forget which mod-set i was playing when, early in the war, we were out on patrol south of Davao in Mindanao and it was very quiet. so we cruised into Davao to do a little cherry picking. we dispatched the patrol boat stationed there and then surfaced and gunned down the merchies. afterwards, as we swept the area visually before departing, the periscope pipped with a contact. when i zoomed-in, low-and-behold, it was a Yamato-class, buried deep in the jungle behind the docks. couldn't do a thing with her, so we waved good-bye and headed back to the pacific. i had a screen shot at one time but i fear it is lost to the bit bucket. ![]()

lmao I remember that, the Yamato in the hills. I remember seeing smoke from mountains in Davao area. I had external cam on and took forever to find it sure enough there was about half a yamato sticking out of the mountain lol. I think this was stock or early version of RSRD, which was prob a stock legacy thing. Someone at UBI got their ship placement wrong lol |

Don't know if this is an issue or just a freak occurrence. I decided to do an Asiatic patrol out of Cavite in a Porpoise class boat and started in port. When I was almost between Corregidor and Bataan I had a CTD. I think TC was either 512 or 1024.
Restarted in S-18 boat outside of harbor, heading to "Convoy College" and have been attacked twice already by those pesky IJN flying boats. Both missed. ![]()

TC around the minefields lol can cause that, some of the most common reports I heard at initial release, people were not used to it lol. I mentioned minefields in README but don't believe mentioned anything about CTD, because in testing never happened to me, so did not occur. Since, CTD has only happened to me once due to Manila minefields, may vary from rig to rig. Occasionally there is a submerged IJN sub lurking outside Manila during that time period. I thought it could be a culprit but never had a CTD from it, when was there (that I knew of). I will likely to reduce the number of mines in US minefields at Manila Bay to be a little more friendly for use with TC . lol Yea, no SD at start of war, and S Boats do not receive SD until mid 1942 if I recall.. Risky to run on the surface during daylight. |

Yup, can confirm... there be minefields around the entrance to Manilla... & though I haven't come across any more, any where else... doesn't mean they aren't out there... about the only areas that I may believe may be... mine free... is deep waters areas.
But... be aware, that's a SWAG... at best. ![]() ![]() M. M.
