Just had my first HOLY CRAP moment.

FYI a magnetic fused torpedo run about .5 meeter under the center of a tanker is normally a 1 shot affair.

BA-BOOM, Herr Kaleun

I managed to nab a 7,000 ton supply ship with a torpedo, then followed along behind the convoy as it lagged behind the group and finished in with a few deck gun shots. Fortunately the group had no escorts. The 2nd of my last 2 went after another supply ship(from my position, I could only realistically hit the two ships in the rear of the convoy), but I forgot to "deselect" the ship with the space bar just before firing. Someone should really fix that aiming.

After this encounter I started to head for home, as I was out of torpedoes and my hull integrity was at 75% from an earlier raid. On the way back, I got a radio ordering me to report status and location. So I did. Then I noticed the radio sound kept playing unusually long. Then I CTDed. Fortunately, my autosave kicked in right after my torpedo hit that ship, but for some reason when I reloaded, I was still out of torpedoes and that ship hadn't been hit at all, so I had to finish her entirely with the deck gun. Made me quite angry.
