I think I'm more home SH4 than in SH3...

Been experimenting with RFB and TMO, both with RSRDC and SCAF and a host of other glorious mods...

I had excellent time planning surface night attacks with decks awash at 30 ft. They couldn't see me comin' with my low silhouette! Also, at 30 ft it was faster to go to periscope depth than fully surfaced.

The question is how to go to snorkel depth? I know fleet boats weren't supposed to have them until the end of the war but is it possible to alter the values so I could just press a key and just go decks awash without manually setting the depth dial... :hmm:

Thanks a lot for the replies.

(Whew, been a while!)
Check in Sh4 folder data/cfg/Commands.cfg and search for snorkel to find keyboard commands
Then set the depth in the data/submarine/Yoursubmarine/yoursub.cfg (snorkeldepth=)

On our Japanes subs we used SH4 Menumaker and added a button to the Ordersbar for raise, lower and Snorkel depth. (Since the boats actually have snorkels)
