Bug where ship doesn't sink
There was a bug in one of my games where the ship that I shot died but didn't sink. I took a video recording of it not sinking for 4 minutes strait (with it fast forwarding in game) and 2 minutes strait of looking at the boat not sinking under water.

It only sunk once I shot it twice even though it showed it was dead beffor that. (Second video that was about 2 minutes long)

They don't always sink. In real life they don't always sink, sometimes for days or weeks or just never. If the sinking physics are taken from Atlantic Fleet (their previous game) you sometimes get ships capsizing, standing on end under water, or floating underwater. It depends where the trapped air is, where the holes are etc. Because the Cold War weapons are more destructive, ships in CW are more likely to sink and more likely to sink fast. But not always. When the enemy vessel goes to a wreck icon, it is no longer operational, whether it's above or below the water.

Have you never noticed tha (sometimes) damaged/dead in the water ships actually get underway again

Enemy subs don't always die with one torpedo hit either

They have damage control just the same as your sub, you sub does not always sink even though it is full of holes does it

Apart from you thinking it is a (bug) .... if it is I hope it stays because it means you have to think before fireing a torpedo as it might go for the dead in the water ship instead of your intended target .... just like in real life :)

In the begging it shows it is dead

Bottom left on the map it shows the ship is black meaning it is dead

Plus the ship is litterally half in the water.

And I am extreamly close to it so if it was alive it would be shooting at me...
As soon as the enemy vessel is non-operational it's icon turns to a wreck icon. It may take some time after that to actually sink. Possibly never sink in some rare cases.
