USS Sailfish ex-Manila to Cam Ranh Bay, 12/16/41 at night torpedoed a Class 13 subchaser 257 degrees, 1389 km from the Manila anchor symbol. Set course for a perpendicular stern shot when I noticed a visual disturbance behind the boat. Sailfish had a silvery cloud of steam following her just above the props, but it would not appear above the horizon. Increasing the angle of view above the surface makes the entire cloud visible but decreasing it and thereby forcing it up to the horizon made it disappear at that line.
This is most likely the issue reported back in 1.39 off Tokyo.
Also the crew slots were missing when I selected a bow position for the gun. I went with a stern position but am quite willing to scrap this first patrol and restart if you need no further data on the steam.
