Not too uncommon either is the situation where I begin a long distance interception run. Before I get anywhere near visual range the map's target symbol turns into a sunk ship symbol. Those I don't get credit for.

Actaully earlier today, I was taking my IID into Scapa Flow, and I shot a torpedo at a Small Depot Ship. I hit its fuel storage I imagine because he just exploded and sunk, however, there was a Black Swan class stopped maybe 20 meters behind it, and the thing just started sinking, I dont know why, but it did. It showed the ship sunk icon on the map but I didn't get credit for it. Needless to say I was a bit confused because I hadn't picked up any hydrophone contacts other than a V&W class far to my left.
