Does SH3 Commander vary crush depth by that much? I use this feature of Commander but would expect to be able to dive into the red i.e. deeper than 160m with a boat that is in tip top condition. If the boat has taken a battering different kettle of fish as you would expect the hull integrity to be reduced. When evading a severe depth charge attack I often go down to 160m or more and as msalama has mentioned, don't start to worry until I pass the 220m mark.
