I have noticed when using TC, this "studdering". Either I will get an alert from the crew within a few seconds, or nothing will happen and it will go back to normal. For me, it is just easier to let the game do it's stuff and not worry about it. I really don't want to be jamming on the brakes and running over to the sonar station all the time, anyway. For all I know, the lag is because the weather is going from sunny to cloudy or vice-versa.
