I had the same problem....I was hunting the American coast, a big cross on the ocean without shooting something..nothing...emptyness...I was reading a book and when close to the american coast I decided to go submerged and my Hydro reported a sound contact..

Man Battlestations!
I went closes and didnt see any smoke because I popped up the scope at the moment the boat was in a 1000 meters range...I popped up and saw an Enemy....

fishing boat......

I went mad...So I surfaced and shot the bugger with my Deck Gun...

but that was my downfall of my IXC , the American Coastal guard came in action...30 minutes in game I had 3 Destroyers crawling on my back...pinging me and depth charging me....

Welcome to SubSim

I was having problems like these as well. I was close to Cuba in 1941 before the US entrance to the war and I saw a large tanker. It was very dark and since tankers don't appear so often I lunched 2 torpedoes. As it started burning and listing I've realised it was american, but there was nothing I could do by that point. So I've used the deck gun to send him down as soon as possible. A bit more than half an hour later a catalina spotted me and directed 2-3 destroyers towards me. It was the end. I was charged and bombed for more than 2 hours, until I was hit by a bomb on the conning tower. The U-boat exploded and I went to meet the maker

Moral of the story?? If you attack neutrals make sure they go down before they know what hit them
