Weapons Officer loses it.

There we were, right in the middle of a Royal Navy Task force, about 150 metres down, running silent as we dodge the inevitable barrage of wasserbombs after having put 4 of our fish broadside into an Illustrious class Carrier, when I turned around to notice my Weapons Officer exhibiting some very unusual behaviour....click the thumbnail.

I think the stress might have gotten to him. Perhaps this is his way of distancing himself from an unpleasant situation. A bit like the "This is my space, nothing can harm me in my space." self therapy. Either that or he's playing charades with my Nav Officer, no doubt pretending to be a starfish.

So I switch postions...went to the opposite end of the command room, he's still doing it....take screener. I duck into the radio room and come out again to check on him....Aargh. he's still in the same position except his body has dissapeared and he's become a dis-embodied head....Somebody get the medic!!!

After putting some distance between ourselves and the destroyers, I secured the crew from silent running and headed back up topside. Luckily my WO had returned to normality again.

I've been playing SH3 a while now, done more patrols than I care to remember over several careers, but it's the first time I've seen this kind of bug. Is it common ?
