What's a bit frustrating is reading these questions regarding OTC from other threads (or newly started posts), yet not having them asked directly in the Optical Targeting Correction thread. I'm much more likely to read a perceived issue with one of my mods if it's asked in the right thread. I see the response regarding the S-Class MaxDepth=60 question was made in the TMO thread almost a year ago. I'm just not likely to read every post to give an answer to a perceived problem with one of my mods unless its asked in the right thread.
As far as the ability to dive to any depth, one should realize that physics will come into play when you dive. The game takes into account the shear weight that's placed on a hull the deeper you go. It also creates a less responsive sub to controlling its maneuverability the deeper you go. This should go without saying, the deeper you go the more difficult it is to control your decent. By no means should you test your depth limits under a full head of steam, at an angle that's too steep. You may find the boat will not respond to any change in decent (even using emergency surface), and you're on your way to the bottom for good.
Each sub class has it's own limits to crush depth. The S-Class has the shallowest limit (let's say you better not exceed much over 350ft). The Balao has the deepest limit (750ft plus). The others class's are somewhere in between. I'll not tell you exactly what the limits are (the boats hull integrity will play a factor too) but, you get the point.
