Not hard to simulate, but hard to program.
Imagine the stations to multi-play: sound/radio, engines, torpedoes, sub control (diving and steering), ballast control, and watches. All those duties that have lots of details to micromanage. And above all, the captain coordinating everything. I can tell you now, it'd be a blast. Much more than having the MP full human wolfpacks, which has gotten too old now, it's not as fun as it used to.
