Two questions

Hi,

I`m playing SH3 with GWX 1.03 (fantastic job btw.).

Reading through the forum I`ve learned that the round convoy symbol indicates a convoy which has been under attack before. No I`ve found one of these and to my amazement three of the four escorts (3x Black Swan and one Flower class) are burning at full extension. They are still doing search patterns though. So is this eye-candy only or are burning ships in attacked convoys really damaged? Does it influence sensors or weaponary? Are they going to sink finally?

Next one: I damaged a large tanker with one torpedo, which lost speed (crawling along at 0-1 knots). After shaking off the escorts, I chased it submerged as one escort still was nearby. In the hydrophone I heard sinking-noises from the tanker, but it still was moving after around 2 hours so I finally gave her the coupe de grace using another torpedo. So is the squeeking and roaring indicating a sinking ship or does this happen to heavily damaged but not sinking ships too?

TIA

Z.
