By the way, I'm currently working on a 'Davy Jone's Locker' patch for my Traveller Mod that will simulate a destroyed hull and pull the sub from the surface down to... Davy Jone's Locker. This is to prevent players from trying to run around on the surface with multiple, permanently flooded compartments due to destroyed bulk heads. Subs should sink from the surface with multiple flooded compartments, and now they will. It actually works pretty well. Kind of creepy watching the stricken sub being pulled down. Here's a screen shot during testing running on the surface at flank speed with flooded compartments, trying to avoid 'the Locker':
And down she goes to meet Davy Jones...

Looks good. If I could only get my surface ships to sink like that.
