peculiar no credit situation

I believe no credit for a sinking ship you torpedoed is "about" the same in Stock SHIII as it is in the other mods.... GW, RUB and NYGM. I also believe it's not changeable either or it would have been fixed by now.

So first of all, is it true that hanging around within detection distance isn't necessary to get a kill?

Secondly, I just downed a Passenger Liner last night. I saw the "shes going down", and saw it go down. Well actually it almost went all the way down. There must have been a little bug in the game at that point cause the boat actually froze at a point where its bow was sticking up roughly 25 feet above the water line. There never was a downed boat displayed on the map, but when I did a "Save and Exit" last night, I noticed the game showed me having credit for the kill. So since I read that message during patrol, will I still get credit after returning to base even though there's no display of it on the map?

Hit the "K" key to access your patrol log. If it's there you'll get credit.

Thanks. Don't know how I missed that one. I've used the F1 key many times and never noticed it for some silly reason.

DMI. Also I believe you DO have to hang around till you get the "She's going down" message or you'll get nada.
