[QUOTE=Nisgeis;1413316]Hi Scratch,

If it destroyed your whole engine room, the charge must have been very close. I don't seem to recall the loudness of DCs being particularly indicative of how close they were, I could be wrong though. I look forward to your further comments with the help of the external camera

Yeah scratch that, they were pretty close, maybe 13m away, which is what i'd been reading. as far as how i was gauging the "distance" by sound, the further they were, the more muffled and softer they were. however right on top of me, they sounded just the same as 20m away. odd... we need a better louder DC sound

currently being harrassed by a single escort dropping 2-3 dc's per run pretty close together so right now they're not really doing anything.

Edit: i've definately not found a difference in volume between distant and close hits. odd. i'd have thought if it exploded next to my pressure hull, 250kg of tnt would sound more like an explosion and less like someone beating my boat with a pillow.
