cohimbra -> Spontanous combustion (4/16/2015 8:21:03 PM)
Hi all, just watched my pbem combat replay and something strange happen: one of my ship, Kinai Maru (Kyushu class), in a CargoTF transporting Fuel, just sunk. No sub, no air attack, no ship collision, no ground collision, just burned and scuttled [:D] [image]http://i.imgur.com/0RNxs7g.png[/image] [image]http://i.imgur.com/ZyZ3rUP.png[/image] Never see anything like this, any ideas? Just to be clear, I take the loss and go ahead, no problem at all (well, in real life fire happens sometimes). Just curious to know if you see thing like this before. [X(]

I've had an xAK blow up in harbor in one game, but I've not lost a combat ship yet.

I love (or I hate?) this game. From tomorrow no cigarro on board, cerveza only.

Read the ops report, there might be something in there as a clue. Accidents happen and ships sink. In game it's less common than it was in real life. Bill

I had the bottom ripped out of one and it sunk like a stone...

often enough, I'll hear a random kerblam during the replay. This is usually a mine strike, or a navsearch Emily sinking another tanker.

Bill Yes, usually I read about ship collision and rock collision, so the first thing I did was reading the ingame reports and find nothing (only the string I posted in first img): OPERATIONAL REPORT FOR Mar 13, 43 Yokosuka 6th SNLF packing for load on APD Nadakaze (TF 161), 2 day(s) remaining Yokosuka 6th SNLF packing for load on APD Shimakaze (TF 161), 2 day(s) remaining Yokosuka 6th SNLF packing for load on APD Yakaze (TF 161), 2 day(s) remaining Fires out of control, xAK Kinai Maru can not be saved No additional repairs possible on xAK Tasmania Maru using currently assigned resources at Saipan No additional repairs possible on xAK Nagisan Maru using currently assigned resources at Tinian No additional repairs possible on CA Aoba using currently assigned resources at Truk No additional repairs possible on SS RO-61 using currently assigned resources at Truk No additional repairs possible on E Shimushu using currently assigned resources at Truk No additional repairs possible on xAKL Malacca Maru using currently assigned resources at Truk No additional repairs possible on xAKL Higari Maru using currently assigned resources at Truk No additional repairs possible on SS I-175 using currently assigned resources at Kwajalein Island No additional repairs possible on xAKL Sasago Maru using currently assigned resources at Davao No additional repairs possible on xAKL Tihuku Maru using currently assigned resources at Davao CS Convoy TF 89 begins loading Resources at Toyohara for delivery to Wakkanai CS Convoy TF 143 begins loading Resources at Hakodate for delivery to Hirosaki/Aomori CS Convoy TF 153 begins loading Resources at Sapporo for delivery to Ominato Yokosuka 6th SNLF packing for load on APD Nadakaze (TF 161), 2 day(s) remaining Yokosuka 6th SNLF packing for load on APD Shimakaze (TF 161), 2 day(s) remaining Yokosuka 6th SNLF packing for load on APD Yakaze (TF 161), 2 day(s) remaining G4M1 Betty sighting report: 9 Allied ships at 39,60 near Little Andaman, speed 18, Moving East G3M3 Nell sighting report: 8 Allied ships at 30,112 near Cocos Islands, speed 19, Moving Southeast G3M3 Nell sighting report: 6 Allied ships at 26,115 near Cocos Islands, speed 20, Moving Southwest G4M1 Betty reports object under water at 132, 49 near Ketoi-jima Ki-48-IIa Lily reports submarine at 101, 59 near Nagasaki/Sasebo [...] So I read all the .txt files in save folder and obviously nothing again. As extrema ratio I installed Combat Reporter to see if a touch of magic happen, but again nothing. So I posted here to know if someone see things like this, just out of curiosity; I've 1.500/2.000 turns of play, but never saw this type of event (with no info) before. quote: ORIGINAL: jmalter often enough, I'll hear a random kerblam during the replay. Oh, and no sound at all. Only GLUGLUGLU. [:D]

Could it have been an allied search plane that actually did attacking it? I don't think the details for those attacks are reported...

Also, those generally add a "Last hit by 250lb GP bomb", for example, which would then show as the cause of sinking - not scuttling.
