Because they are "environment" (like a dock or tree or those happy nurses on the wharf), your watch officer will never see it. So they are always accompanied by an anchored tug or trawler that your watch officer can see.

I suspect there's some additional coding in there, since my 1WO can always spot a lightship trawler at 10-12K, while sometimes missing ASW trawlers 500 m behind us.

Wonder if all he (player) saw was the lightship, but sank the tug? Due to the way they lined up, they could look like the same ship.

But then he would have gotten credit...... maybe he did sink the lightship...


Yessir....... you sank some scenery.
