This is really starting to bother me with SHV. I was having a nice cat & mouse with some DD's after sinking 2 tankers in their convoy, but when you set silent running and do anything slow enough to be silent you are constantly sinking. I was eventually about to crush so I had to fire up the engines and give myself away.

I don't mind that if I am stopped, but you need to be able to hold depth while evading.

Sorry Duc, didn't mean to be OT again
