It also appears that the Event Camera is not showing the same exact image as your view angle shows. In other words, the ship appears to be lower in the water than your regular camera. Notice that there are no gun crews on the No13SC at all? In theory, the ship has already taken damage from something, but also notice that the bow wave "wake" is on the water, while the bow is not?... That appears to be an improperly rendered scene. What is your mod list there, what is the date, what boat are you in, and what is the approximate location? Thanks.
it IS a #13 SC but it was #10 that day.

ok, recapping events.....
the event camera was a different ship than the SC and obviously we had torpedoed it and it was in its death throes. she went down stern first, just like in the movies. if that was the manifestation of something incorrect then i have to say it was more realistic than watching it just settle into the depths on an even keel. IMO, for what it is worth.

clearly, the SC was struggling to stay afloat in 7 m/s water. we watched her for several minutes and then decided to put her out of her misery. i was worried that a torpedo might miss her because she presented such a small target area. we closed to within a few hundred yards and did not miss.

our boat was the only US resource in the vicinity so if the SC took damage it was from the 7 m/s water.

i no longer have the save file to verify things. this action took place in the spring of 1942 and was in one of three general locations: Carolines, Marshalls, or Marianas.
