The only way to get the u-boat back onto an even keel is then to order another crash dive and of course let it complete.

"Hunt and Kill: U-505 and the U-boat War in the Atlantic" said that U-boats have an additional emergency diving cell of thirty tons used only in crash dive situations. This cell was blown again as soon as the boat reached a safe depth. You could almost say the game models this, except if they did they screwed it up! I can't see any reason the crew wouldn't blow it if a dive was interrupted, plus although I don't know where this cell was I imagine it would be toward the bow and not the stern.
Just thought it strange there's an additional crash dive cell and the game has this strange effect when a crash dive is stopped.
