Game does not register a kill?

I'm not quite sure what they mean exactly by that first point, other than in between patrols the game tends to create two auto-saves, an "in base after mission" and "in base before mission". So I think what they're getting at is that if you do any upgrades in the "after mission" part, you may encounter some problems with ship credits. Whether they mean the renown or the tonnage as well I don't know.

3. Finally, is it possible that you may have sunk the same ship twice, as per the second point?

Thanks for the help, it did not show up in patrol logs. (I tried manually adding it via SH3 commander, didn't work) I didn't upgrade my uboat, I did though change the torpedo loadout. (I do this every patrol in late war since I dislike FaT torpedoes)

It is possible I sank a resurrected ship, I did sink some near Dover, and then sailed north up to Scotland, it's possible I bumped into the resurrected ship a couple of times.

You should be able to check that in your Captain's Log: after the first sinking the ship should be logged; try to remember the route you have taken after that and whether you have saved/reloaded game since.


I wonder if this happens in WAC, LSH3 or other mods too, and what about SH4, SH5...??

I think it’s a bug. NYGM suffers from it as well, even if you KNOW you haven’t sunk a resurrected ship (by sinking no more than one ship of a class). I get around the problem by editing my save game at the end of each patrol.
