If all works, V15D will contain:

- CO2 production/diving times considering repairs, silent hunting, crew size.
- speed reduction to 5 knots when snorkelling (currently without considering wind speed??)
- simulate periscopes vibrations for speed > 4knots

But that needs time.
Great news, h.sie Impressive work! Again, this will add a lot to realism!

Concerning snorkeling: I read that you could snorkel up to a sea state of 3-4. According to what I read, this corresponds to a wave height of 1.25 - 2.5 m. Maybe a max. windspeed between 8 and 10 m/s for snorkeling would be fine in game

So, wind speed =< 10 m/s: snorkeling possible at 5 kn (no max. speed changes below wind speed 10m/s)
Wind speed > than 10 m/s: no snorkeling possible.
