Greetings, All!
My question of the day is this:

Does anyone else have trouble snorkeling in bad weather?

Conditions are as follows:
POS laptop running:
SH3 with V15E3 Patch
NYGM 3.5
Magui F
Magui F Fix
IABL Ships for NYGM
FuMB37 XXIII NYGM

Weather is >10m/s, rain, mist

Symptoms:
Unable to ring up ahead bell while diesel is running unless on surface, which causes me to sink out...
My crew doesn't seem concerned, though! :D

Any thoughts?

Read mod makers 1ST Post about snorkel. h.ste's realismV15E3 Patch is just that. Realism

" Snorkel-Fix (V15D or later)
Speed restriction when snorkelling - wind speed dependent! (Speed restriction starts 20 seconds after beginning of snorkelling. This was necessary to prevent that speed restriction handicaps crash dive).


Wind speed = 0...5m/s: Uboat speed restricted to "1/3"
Wind speed = 6...10m/s: Uboat speed restricted to "slow".
Wind speed = 11...15ms/s: Uboat stopped. Snorkelling impossible.
