Years ago (2007 - 2008-ish) my entire crew died of CO2 poisoning because my boat was damaged and couldn't rise above 26'. External view showed my stern down about 30' and my bow sticking up unless we were moving, then we could level out.

I could get up on the bridge but none of my crew could. The missing Abandon Ship button/command didn't make me too happy. At 26' my diesels wouldn't fire up so it was batteries only until they were gone, then we slowly sailed vertically until CO2 killed my crew. Un-modded Stock at the time.

I doubt Rescue Sub would have helped me, but Traveller did the best he could with what he had to work with. You posted some nice screenshots in that topic showing what Rescue Sub could do in the Pacific. Post 30, Thanks! (somebody needs to toot your horn propbeanie
