Oh, I know, I know. I searched high and low for an answer, and couldn't find one when I needed it.

One possible reason for this is that your crew was low in fatigue and therefore would not be able to respond in time.

Brand-new career. I had just reached my patrol grid and decided on a test dive. The rest is in my first post.

Another is the speed at which your boat was going at, though seeing as you didn't assume a crash-dive order this should not be the case.

Was at 1/3 speed, whatever that is in German. It's never happened that way before. Went to flank in the surface attempt.

Another would be the depth, this has happened some times to me and to many others, in where they would reach a certain depth and would not be able to even blow-balist.

I started trying to recover as soon as I realized I wasn't stopping at 70 meters.

Or Davy Jones decides to send the Kraken to pull you to the depths (or the locker).

That one works for me.

Take in mind that these are all just suggestions and possible veriables to what might have happened. Though you could give more details prier to the incident. Such as what mods were enabled at the time, which off course, would evidently lead to a conclusion that a mod was conflicting with another mod, but this was rarely the case for this type of problem.
|
I don't see what conflict could cause that either, but I can't think what else it could be.

Sequel: When I reloaded the game I was still at 112 meters, and still angled upward. I tried blowing ballast again, and it took me to the surface just like it's supposed to. So I ordered Periscope Depth and it went down like a rock. At about 200 meters I pulled the plug (shut the computer off manually) so I wouldn't lose the career. Reloaded the game and blew ballast to surface again, and this time saved on the surface.
I'll be running some more tests, pulling mods out to see what happens, and I'll keep you all posted. I may lose the career, but that seems to be happening a lot lately, and always on the very first patrol.
