Not that big of a deal (just order 2m more but you have to give every order on the depth gauge, so there's no working shortcuts for periscope or snorkel depth), but it get's very annoying over time to say the least.

This is due to the Issue I outlined to you in this post
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=182225
Here let me show that it works for correctly calibrated dials. (As stated Mine are to my knowledge the only dials in SH5 that are done correct - stock and all other dials I've seen have the same error).
Ok First Instance selecting depth via Dial.
Now second Instance calling for a depth via a command ie: Pericope depth.
The error works both ways - If you click the dial the cfg file is callibrated compared to the graphic dial to be a few degrees out hence the 2m depth error.
Also the same is true for reverse when you order a depth the sub is actually reaching the correct depth - its just the dial is displaying what the depth should be - but due to the error in degrees , it just looks like its 2m out in depth.
Hope that clears it up And any one with a UI please take note that your dials not just depth all need to be calibrated correctly.
When I did my UI all stock dials had a few degrees error in them.
