Probably you hit a mine, I think.

Mines!!?? there are mines??? hahha, that explains it.

Yep, definately a mine. Happend to me twice in my whole SH3 career. Annoying, but realistic.

I love it.

I remember I was doing a patrol off the east coast of England in a type II pretty soon after I installed GWX. I had event camera on and when I launched a torp at a unsuspecting merchant the screen came up and I watched my torp go streaking past a mine tethered about 10 feet below the surface just in front of my sub.

I was like WTF!!????!! ARRRGGGHHH, rudder hard to port, but I didn't hit it, I just headed away from the coast and have never ventured that far into the shallows since. I don't use gods eye view so that glimpse from the event camera was my only sighting of a mine. That's GWX though, always something to surprise ya.

In my SH3 Vanilla, GWX2.1, GWX3.0Gold + SH3Commander
i have never and i mean never hit a mine! I do use external view but i never had to manoeuver to avoid a mine. Even in an IX class boat.

Im almost pleasantly surprised when i happen to see a mine nearby my boat.

Well if it was not a Mine then it must have been that Curry the Cook made out of them left-over meat bits.
