It is possible it is an intentional feature that is not working properly.
If it was tied into silent running that would be a very cool feature.
Or it is possible it is simply a bouancy model for the subs that does not work properly below 100 meters.
We do not know yet.
I have been fiddling about with the submerged displacement figure in the sim file for the Type VIIA.
By shaving some numbers off the figure I can make my sub just about hold level at 150 meters, with full up on the planes, but this tweak leads to a boat that is unresonably quick at rising from 100 meters to periscope depth. She goes up real quick! Not an ideal solution. And not something I would want to release as a mod. I was just trying to figure out how the numbers in the sim file affect the game.
I'm hoping this issue will be addressed in a future patch.
