MAYBE IT'S JUST ME.

I have been using M.E.P v4.2 for a long time. Recently tried version v5 and noticed a change in U-Boat behavior. Not sure whether it was introduced in v4.3 (which I never tried) or v5, but in M.E.P v5 the U-Boat appears to sit lower in the water and bobs more fore and aft.

For example, when leaving port, the initial weather (and associated sea state) is always the same -- North at 4 m/s. With M.E.P v5, I have waves coming over the deck of a Type IX and the bow occasionally plows under water with winds at just 4 m/s -- not so with M.E.P v4.2 and prior versions.

Anyone else notice this?
