Attached you find a small test scenario with one SSK and as a opposite vessel a Krivak FFG.

Following weird stuff goes on:
- the SSK try to hunt (disable manual speed setting) the FFG but in a very dumb way....it just tries to catch following her straight from behind - but does not realize that the battery capacity is not sufficient in doing so
- bug: even when the sub has no battery left, it switches to nuclear energy ;)...that is the simulation ignores the fact that there is no energy left! [<---- MOD NOTE: NO REPRO]

Thanks!

1) Agree we need a sanity check for chases. The unit being chased can change speeds to check needs to be periodic.
2) We have logic that says if a enemy contact is near stay dived which is likely causing this.
3) When it doesn't detect a contact and is patrolling its bouncing too much I think.

Issues added to our list. Thanks Hawkeye!

Mike

Unable to reproduce issue in Build 643; sub is immobilized as expected as soon as the battery runs out.

However, I noticed (in build 624) that such sub (completely discharged battery) is still able to change its heading. If a torpedo attacks such "dead" sub it will not move, but it will still rotate in place trying to evade the torpedo. It's a minor bug, but it can affect you as the new heading will reorient the sensor arcs.

OP problem fixed in Build 689; Sub captains now evaluate if they'll be able to catch up with their targets and target/drop them accordingly.
