Really is beautiful boat, cant wait for more patrols. Imagine evading depth charges, especially in late 43 and beyond is a real challenge, I know she dives slow, one patrol plane nearly got me. although I goofed on my patrol lol, had to insert an agent in Manchuria and tried to head there at ahead standard like do with other subs in TMO RSRD. Did a lot of diving to avoid planes, remain undetected, and follow the doctrine of early 1942, as well as battery recharging(which takes forever) and is quite a journey there.After dropping agent off, sinking a merchant encountered just inside the Bohai Gulf, dodging a destroyer in heavy fog(see patrol stories thread shortly) and trip back, fuel tanks were bone dry lol had 3 miles to spare according to the navigator when made it to Midway to refuel en route to Pearl Harbor.
One thing I would like to do is rearrange the crew compartment, add a crew berth like subs in TMO and make it so both stern and bow planes are manned , not just when at GQ(old leftover from stock boats I suppose,always drove me crazy) but I have no clue how to do this.
