Hi Bubblehead
Thank you so much for taking the time for such a detailed reply. Yes, the DD was on patrol and I was trying to sneak into Saipan harbour to do some harbour raiding to use up my remaining few torps before heading back to Pearl. Didn't get to see what class DD it was though.
Was not aware of how the game simulates noise levels, so your sharing that the best way to hide is beneath the thermal layer, silent running, <100 rpm, is very welcome.
Still, it was strange that the AI seemed to know exactly where I was at all times, he kept hovering around the orange marker in cam view, and when I was at all stop he literally did 8's around the marker. Didn't drop any depth charges though... or maybe he was out?
Coincidentally the sub that I'm captaining now is also the USS Drum.
Speaking of which - do the enemy DD's have a limited supply of depth charges?
