I went from periscop depth to 80meters in about 3 minutes... to just maintain depth I had to go "halbe kraft voraus". This does not really feel historically correct... from 15 to 80 meters in under 5 minutes of slow running would mean that in reallity a u boat crew could not maintain silent running for more than 10 minutes before going into critical depth? I read in some threads that the "sinking" effect is made worse by the stieblers patch? Is this correct? I can't attack anything while submerged unless I keep half to max speed?

I have the "sabotage and malfunctions" enabled in commander. Could this be a sabotage feature?

Just to be sure, I am not trying to question the research by modders or other individuals. It just does not feel correct...
Thx in advance
It tells you in the NYGM users manual that the SABOTAGE and MALFUNCTION option in Sh3 Commander should not be used.
