Good point. Another way to do this is to use S3D Editor and mod it in as a fake dive plane, "stealing" the dive plane extension/retraction animation from stock SH4 sub. That is how I modded in retractable masts on the U-31/U-35 model.
Unfortunately that method does not limit engine use if the stack isn't raised.
Too bad I can't use the dive plane method for the crew on deck bc then they will be on deck automatically at all times when surfaced. If anyone knows how to implement different extensibles with different key combos, please let me know.
