If you dont bother hexediting SH5.exe there is another possibility.

When you click a door, sh5.exe checks if you clicked the conning tower door. IF it is the conning tower door, the actual depth will be checked.

SH5 checks the clicked_door_name versus "Door_CT_EXT" which is a string hardcoded in sh5.exe.

If you now search "Door_CT_EXT" in sh5.exe with your hexeditor and change it to anything else (dont change length), f.e. "Door_CT_TTT", then sh5.exe wont match the door anymore.

The result is that you can handle the conning tower door as every other door and open/close it at any depth. The 2nd result is that the door wont be closed automatically anymore, when you dive.
It results in the ability to go from INT to EXT at every depth.
So you didnt need to chance the *.cfg files anymore.

If you want it so, you have to decide.
