That is to say, it becomes less of the “balanced” computer game/simulation that UBIsoft originally intended (that had a TON of bugs), and more of a dedicated simulation as more and more MODers refine and enhance it.
Until just now when I read yours and BH's explanation of the situation I had no real knowledge of the specific history of the periscopes of U.S. NAVY inter-war and WWII submarines. So what I thought was a problem was in fact not a problem at all, but rather a more honest representation of the actual periscopes of these boats.
So, much ado over nothing... I guess.
Thanks for the info and explanations, and sorry about the unnecessary questions and speculations.
I still maintain that the Flying Dutchman is riding a little to high in the water... unless you or someone else have a real life explanation for that too.

On that, about the dutchman riding a bit higher in the skirts above the water... it is likely, that there will be some other ships that are like that, besides the dutchman there.
Just 1 of many bugs that started off 1st, from Ubi & may have been overlooked as things got modded as it pertains to ships. Not a recrimination against ship modders, just that it can happen of things slipping through the cracks... & getting overlooked in the grand scheme of things.
Hopefully, as with other things worked on, is another thing that can be reworked
to balance out the force. (sorry, a bit of a Star Wars reference there...
)
Hope that helps...
