Excelent Job tho! |
Welcome Fieters!
Changing "map_render_style = 2" to "map_render_style = 1" in the gameoptions.ini file will help, especially when zoomed out. Also, make sure "OpenGL_graphics = 1" and maybe lower the "number_of_ships" and "number_of_aircraft".

At the moment the only custom sub I know about is the December Class, available here:

Hopefully more people will share their creations when the game is more popular. I should get around to improving the submarine editor to make it a bit less user-unfriendly too.

I'll have more than enough power, I'll have the diesel gen. on, but they won't pump. 
The other bug (albeit hilarious) was that the Russians were not very courteous. I was playing as the USSR, and I got sunk by the Americans, and then they drove off (Candadian-American?). The Russians seemed to have a surplus of depth charges though, and they seemed determined to pass them on to me.
It did lead to the most emotional moment of the game though, as my sub was grounded just off the coast of California, and my two remaining crew members were getting ready to abandon the sub and swim to the shore. One of them lagged a little behind, and he was killed by a depth charge.
RIP Chief Mills. 
Would anyone be adverse to me making a subreddit for this? |
As Tango said, the effectiveness of bilge pumps decreases as you go deeper. They will also not work if battery power is too low, but that shouldn't be a problem if the nuclear reactors are still functional.
There is actually a subreddit already, but it's very quiet and I don't think many people know about it. It's here if you're interested:
http://www.reddit.com/r/subcommander/. I think people occasionally post about the game in /r/roguelikes too, someone posted a pretty good
beginners guide a while ago.
Poor chief Mills
