can someone explain how combat actually works please? - unless you have the sub (I don't yet) you get about 5 lines for the RV or trawler - they dont make sense - dont describe what you see on the screen - are contradictory - and in short - dont work.
sometimes I can see my attackers and shoot back - sometimes I can't and I'm just left sitting there getting shot up - right now I'm under attack by about 3 vessels at once - they are only visible on radar, and my guns cannot see them - let alone target them - but their combat skills are lacking too - I've left them to attack me without fighting back or even moving for about 2 hours and the red things they are shooting at me seem to miss almost every time - what's going on? - it wont even let me make a run for it!! surely the combat screens shouldn't be so boring - something should happen

Combat with the sub is different. You basically should just gun your engines and point yourselfs away from the other ships and torpedos and keep yourselves away while going to the F2 screen and loading your torpedos. It should take a few minutes to load them and you select a target by using the T button or just clicking on one. Try to fire at an angle where your torpedos won't get intercepted by the enemies torpedos. I actually like to run while my torps are being loaded and when it is time to fire to turn around and charge the enemies and fire when i am almost on top of them.
I did the last three posts so if anybody wants to email me or reply to me with questions or Coordinates I will respond.
