Strange waypoint pathfinding at deep depth

Your waypoint is on the surface. When running deep you never reach your waypoint and the AI gets confused. So, when reaching the location you have to manually erase the waypoint.

Thats totally right mikhayl

it cant get the nose over fast enough so it does the go around
this turned up a lot with the evasive maneuvers mod when working
it up.

Try to ensure a distance of 6km or more between waypoints. At slow ahead the XXI has the largest turning radius of all the U-boats.

Have also run into the same thing while running deep and there's a sharp change in depth (i.e. you're too deep), rather than taking dmg like ramming into a subnet the TC will get stuck at 4 and the compass will constantly spin till you go shallow.
