Great info! So subs should turn little faster, accelerate slower (but not as slow as I though ?) and the methode of depth changing (autopilot) should be reprogrammed ? (but isn't the last mostly cosmetic change ? should subs only behave different or also have different diving/surfacing times?)
Best would be if he could propose what should be in the game values of stop to flank time or degrees/sec in turn, is it possible ?

P.S. So maybe.... cavitation should depend not only on speed at given depth but also on combination of speed to throttle setting at given depth ?? I think it's not hard to do (but in game code so by Sonalysts). For example when shallow you could set throttle to speed only 5kts greater that your actual speed (or the throttle lever up by one) to not cavitate, only when you accelerate you can add some more and so on. On greater depths like 300-600ft you could set 10kts or 20kts more than you have now (and more radical throttle lever movement, by two or three stages), only on max depth you could order any speed you want (set flank from stop) without cavitating ? How this sounds ?
