So far so good. Everything seems to be coming together nicely Lurker, just a couple of quick questions.

First off...can anyone else having this glitch, it's just cosmetic, and I'm not really worried about it, just curious to see if anyone has replicated it. The picture is from the interior of a VIIB leaving Kiel in spet of 39.

Notice the wierd glare on the speed gauge??

Is this ship from panama or not??

Also, if my memory served me correctly, this was a victory cargo and I didn't think they were in use in 39, although that may just apply to PTO.

Also, in the Type VIIB seems to have a depth keeping problem. If I order ahead at 7kts at 130 meters. I'll only dive to say, 120-122 meters, at ahead flanks the depth will still only run at about 124-125 meters. Is this a historically acurate with this make of U-boat. I know that it should run a meter or so shallow when > 2kts. Or did Sh4 start calculating whether I make my daily trim dive or not.
