In different sea conditions in stock as well, 11/12 meters will have your boats bow and stern popping out in swells, which is quite lame.

In real life periscope depth wasn't a set control, it was a command, a captain could alter to whatever he felt should be periscope depth, and I am quite certain he would adjust his depth to get the best view w/o his scope poking out 3 meters in the air.

This setting gives you more control especially under TC, you order peri depth and your scope will breach slightly and if you want up more, manually adjust it. In different sea conditions its position varies, and from boat to boat of course.

Also most sites/reports/logs report periscope depth to "around" 15 meters ;]

Another thing would be I like my boat lower in the water. During convoy attacks its easy to forget about the DD's buzzing around when focusing on target freighters. The deeper your boat is the less chance of being split in two after being rammed.

yes, but the OBS periscope wont go as high as the attack scope, i personaly also like a bit deeper sub dept regarding default pd, but i dont like that the fully extended OBS scope is below surface then...

Is your compressed air supposed to be completely used up in the VIIB with a single crash dive? Coz... mine just was! Eep!

[Capt Jack Harkness]

Crash dives shouldn't be using any compressed air...

Didn't think so, but it went from 100 to 7 after the crash dive. I went from 150m (crash dive depth in this mod) up to 88m and it went down to 2 Compressed Air. I was able to raise to periscope depth, then back down to 100m, but by then it was empty. No adverse affects though?

[Capt Jack Harkness]

Well theoretically surfacing and launching torpedoes would be impossible without it, but I dunno if the game actually does that or not.

On which boat in which conditions?

Hmm will take a look at that, I never intended the scopes to be below the water in peri depth, just not as high as stock.

And what would I do without your sound mod, its the first mod on my install list!

Thank you ddrgn , already installed and enabled and it looks OK

I really like what you are doing here.
I am using a couple of your MOD's. I did encounter a issue withe Type-7C/41. Here is a screeny. (May be from loading this mod mid campaing at sea)

It appears I am running Decks Awash evne though I am surfaced. While good for shadowing a convoy or starting a attack run. This will greatly reduce my overall maximum travel range as it scrubs 2-3 knots speed when at Ahead Standard with a fully trained Motor Officed.

The exact same thing happened to me when I loaded this mod midpatrol. You need to load it while in the pen.

Thanks! Returning to Base to re-enable this fine MOD!

[TheBeast]

I re-enabled this MOD after returning to port and have been using it for a couple hours now. One of the features I keyed on that prompted me to use this mod was the pitch (teeter-tooter) changes mentioned and bringing the bow up so it doesnt appear so heavy but I am not really seeing a notible difference. Has something changed in the latest versions of this MOD?
IMO the boat pitch pivot point appears to be halfway between the Control Tower and the Stern. Shouldn't that pivot point be located directly under the OBS Scope?
When sitting All Stop Zero knots the boat should sit fairly level but as speed is increases the bow should rise and the stern should sink. Am I off base with these thoughts ddrgn or it is possible?

Look the screen at my previous post , the sub have its bow a bit lifted
