Maybe I just dont know how.

Ive tried having them selected on nav map

Ive tried having them "locked" in periscope.

Ive tried having them in the binocs

Ive tried having them in the UZO

I hit the "report contacts" button and nothing happens.

Are you underwater?

Are all messages or sent messages selected when you go to check if the contact had been sent?

I checked the "sent messages" page. Only the patrol reports went through.

I've noticed that when I make contact with a convoy, my crew have to spot at least 2 merchants before I can send a contact report. Just 1 merchant or spotting the escorts won't do.

And by the time my blind crew spots 2 merchants, I end up very close to the escorts! A couple of times I ordered a dive and kept pressing the send contact button and the message went through just before the antenna went underwater!

And that was with patch 1.1. I don't think I sent a contact report since 1.2!
