Harbor traffic mod question

Has anyone of you have sank any friendly ships because you took the task of simulating real recognition on Friend or Foe (without using external view) and have mistaken them for enemy ships?

Do the watch call out on ship sightings even if it has not identified them as friend or foe?

Yes, the watch crew call out every sighting no matter what side they're on.

I always identify the flag myself, and if I can't I don't shoot.

cool...have you encountered friendly traffic in enemy waters?

I seem to be finding an awful lot of German merchants off the coast of Norway; and I mean the middle part, around AN23 and 29, just across from Scapa Flow.

i gotta try out this mod...i'm too really into the manual friend or foe vessel recognition instead of letting the AI do it for you. Have you seen any sea engagements?

Not yet...but I'm off to Norway April 1940 on my current patrol. Hopefully I'll see some surface ship combat; maybe even come to the rescue and sink a British big boy.
