I use the longer repair times mod, so this is more of an issue for me. I remember being stuck at 150-160 meters with damage and flooding after a convoy attack gone wrong. 3 DD's dropping ashcans all over me. I had to turn off silent running so my crew could get the water out. I was slowly going deeper and deeper. The only thing that saved me was emergency blows when I got too deep, and listening for the DD to make an attack run. When they did, I went to flank speed and knuckled left or right to try and evade the DC's falling on my head, then went back to a dead crawl when they passed. I managed to dance around everything they threw at me.

Luckily after a couple hours of this, I had the flooding and pumps repaired and could go back silent and make my escape. It worked. My most intense SH3 experience ever.
