Thanks, Propbeanie! ��
I mispoke. SJ is surface radar. and came first. Oops.
They did improve both radars throughout the war, and in the game. It's now June 1942 and was given a T class boat after 2 patrols with the P class. I had forgotten that the early convoys with only 1 or 2 escorts zig zagged, lol. Thankfully I was far enough out to gauge the shifts prior to my attacks. I've been firing at 20 to 30 degrees versus 90, waiting at least 5 seconds between shots, and setting my depths to 3 feet for DDs and shallow draft vessels, and 10 under the max draft for larger ones. That seems to help with dud and missed torpedo shots. Still had a 40% dud count my last patrol. ��
I had forgotten how long it takes to get from the start of the war even to mid 1942. Last career took 7 real months to finish the war.
