Odd things happening - GWX

did this take place after the aforementioned wolfpack attack?

perhaps the ships that sank went down as a result of damage sustained earlier in the fight and not as a result of damage you inflicted?

From my experience the CTD in the Mediterranean (when i was there with W@W) or the Black Sea were always with Time Compression!
And scrolling the map too fast!:hmm:

With a little caution I managed to avoid that in my career before I was ordered into the Atlantic again!

Agreed, time compression and map scrolling are often a common factor....but as you correctly state, there is a workarond for them.

Yes it did, however that particular ship (the one I didnt fire at) had no visiable damage, it wasnt on fire... she just blew up on her own. I was in an XB, I had already hit one ship behind me and there was still one more eel in the rear torp room (I checked it myself )

Perhaps a crewman was negligent with his ciggarette

The CTD's did happen when I was zoomed out and using TC yes.

Now this next part is ironic, considering I didnt know there was other AI german subs & wolfpacks cruising around, let alone ever seen any. I started a new game last night in a VII. (I prefer the VII's over the IX's...) Anyway I cruising west of the Bay of Biscay my watchman calls down, sub spotted at 50 degree's sir... Sure enough there was a VII off my starboard, so I cruised up beside him to say hello... it was Thompson, Thompsonnnnn!...

I just thought it was pretty funny, considering the above posts, Ive never seen another AI sub in 3+ months of playing and it happens just after all this confusion on my part.

Very cool!

There are also subs ingame from Britain, America, Russia and Italy

Yes Ive seen italian and british subs before but never a german one out at sea, Ive seen them when leaving ports of coarse.

But running into one out at sea that far from port was a first. Maybe tonight I'll seem one engaging a merhcant.

Sorry, should have clarified that part...
