I'm a newbie out on his very first patrol and was wondering myself how to handle being depth-charged.
LOL last night my uboat spotted and engaged a tramp steamer in rough waters N of Ireland. Emptied all forward torpedo tubes at ca 1000 m without a hit. So ordered deck gun into action but was informed that this was not possible. Then crossed behind and fired stern tube at 300 meters, resulting in an explosion but still no hit (?).
And the night before as we rounded Denmark, a warship was spotted quickly bearing down on us. Dropped to periscope depth and squeezed off a torpedo as she sped by. The torp was a dud but it was just well since the destroyer was in fact German.
In the tutorials I did well but then in the tutorials there were no rough seas or nighttime - so it looks like this is going to be one of those games not so easy to master!
Hope to reach my patrol area today, 6 torpedoes poorer !

The explosion/no hit was most likely a dud torpedo which does and should occur in the earlier part of the war.
Post how you installed the game, i.e. and mods, etc.
