Ahoy, all the captains!
I'd like to launch a patrol with a XXI Type U-boat from Bergen to the Caribbean imitating the Schee's objective. I've read today that the only U-boat of that type which had a contact with enemy ships on May 5 1945 had to head there. Obviously, the mission was never completed in reality, but in SH3 we have an option to sail on the XXI-s since October 1944.
But before that I need to fix the vanilla SH3 serious and stupid fault. Guess that everybody knows that this powerful boat which can plunge into the abyss of the ocean as deep as 320 metes has an extremely fragile hull, dramatically vulnerable to depth charges. According to my experience her hull is much weaker than one of the VII-C type, which can dive only as deed as 280 or even less. So as the default properties of the game are ridiculous.
Does anybody know what must be change in the game files to make the game more enjoyable and realistic?

Thanks to all in advance
