Matrix Games Forums

The simulation appears to be locking up in single missions. I get the starting task to go to the surface, so I tell my Pilot sailor to surface the boat, and when I get ~40ft, everything freezes - the time stops, the depth and speed doesn't change despite what I order, or even if I emergency blow. The broadband screen keeps updating, but every row is the same, resulting in vertical banding. It happens within 5 minutes of starting the mission, so needless to say it is a blocking issue.

Are you using a laptop?
I found same problem yesterday, and it's a classic issues i think: the game didn't choose the properly hardware to use in laptop situation. It select your integrated graphic so it performs poorly and easily cause that blackscreen problem.
Since I appoint my independent graphic to run this application manually, I haven't encountered this bug ever since.
Hope this can help you.

Same issue.
Locks up upon reaching 48 feet.

I have a pretty beefy desktop

Late reply but the last hotfix should have fixed these issues.

To report bugs there is a thread on steam or the discord.

I believe the devs plan to rollout a standalone bug submittal platform in time, bit for now those are the places I know of.

Did you noticed in external view or map view that simmulation is not stoped, only the things inside the sub?
This happened twice with me, 1st time things look strange, nothing worked, sonar display become very weird. I tried to understand what was happening, then I got out to external view, simulation was running, submarine was navigating, HUD show 35knots! I tried to halt engine, nothing!, Tried to dive, nothing. Any comand I gave was unresponsive. I check the clock and the time compression, clock not working, not counting seconds, I tried to set a timer, timer didn't worked either, Time compression was always 1, but just in case I tried to fincke with it to try to unlock something, also didn't worked.

I also checked on map screen, simmulation was underway, submarine was navigating.
