The details are all in my description. Really simple honestly.

I am noticing the VIIA, is having some roll instability in 4 MPS winds, and it seems to bob quite a bit. I may lower the CG .02 meters to see how that works. I don't like feeling I am in a bath tub toy. LOL So with that there is still some work to be done. This is happening with the boat in the campaign (new campaign since my old one got buggered by the patch.)

Some fun reading about the VIIA, in real life they had bad depth keeping properties....just like our Sh5 model does. That is kinda cool the devs kept that in mind. Or perhaps when you put in the historically accurate figures, we get an unstable boat.

For the person with the observation problems. Surface your boat and fully extend both scopes. Your problem will be glaringly obvious.

The eyepiece of the observation scope was in the control room, whereas the attack scope eye piece was a good couple of meters higher in the conning tower.

So at depths your attack scope is skimming the surface, the fully extended observation scope in at least 2 meters below the surface. This is acurate seeing as the scopes were equal length.
