Is there a way to set your sub on the bottom without damage in SHIII and
will there be in SHIV?

(Without the "Hull damaged sir were taking damage sir") and i don't mean
just turning off sound files aether.

I know for a fact you were able to do it in (SILENT SERVICE).
I SAT ON THE BOTTOM IN SCAPA FLOW FOR 8 HRS WITHOUT BEING DETECTED.

Okay, that explains it. I played on an Atari and never saw that stuff. Never even got online until I bought my first PC in '98.

But don't feel old; I played Pong when I was already married...back in 1974!

I was just looking through a book on the history of computer graphics, and was amazed to learn that PONG was originally developed for a mainframe computer back in 1958!

One time I didn't get unstuck. Poor crew suffocated. I didn't; they tore me to pieces first.
