Confused about convoy reports

Post by ncc1701e »

I have seen this report at the end of the AI turn.

But, in another window, the detail does not show the same.

The message U-8 SS Grp attacked the South Atlantic convoy lane with 1 groups sinking 3 convoys and 0 escorts seems wrong about the convoy escorts number. Here 0 whereas above shows 7 losses.

Also, can you perhaps rename convoys? This is not 3 convoys sunk, this is only 3 merchants.

Something like:
U-8 SS Grp attacked the South Atlantic convoy lane with 1 group(s) sinking 3 merchant(s) and 7 escort(s)

Or, am I completely wrong about what merchant marine sunk means?

Thanks a lot

Good working point. It didn't sink any escorts. Those 7 escorts are the total escorts in the route. Below it says 0 escorts sunk. Thanks I'll fix that.

Oh I see. What about the 3 convoys? Is it really 3 convoys or just 3 merchant ships?

Thanks a lot
