The DC model has something in common from SH3. In SH3 if one compartment became 100% flooded, it was considered destroyed and all inside die in tha compartment and the whole sub is destroyed.

In SH4, I took an air bomb in the Aft Torpedo Room. My Aft Torpedo Room Bulkhead was destoyed 100% and flooded 100% while I was on the surface the whole time.

To my amazement, the crew in the aft were only wounded, but they would not fix anything. The DC team was able to fix a ASFAIK 100% red destroyed bulkhead completely. Then they pumped out the 100% full water. I was even able to transfer men in and out of that Room even though it was 100% flooded!

Anyway, after all my repairs indicated I was completely back to new shape. I order periscope depth and the rear end sunk like a rock with my front end sticking way up in the air as if the aft torpedo room was really still 100% flooded and weight down instantly.

This occurs immediately at soon as I started a slow dive at zero speed a few feet down into the water.

Does this also happen with just a small amount of damage to any BulKhead damage? I could see it would reduce overall hull integrity and ability to go deep; but one scratch and the whole submarine sinks like a rock as soon as you dive a few feet??

Edit:

AVGWarhawk: In your picture above with the Bulkhead completely repaired, your Aft Torpedo Room is still displaying 100% flooded (blue color). So that would tell you that if you dive like that, your rear end is going to pull you down to the bottom from the water weight?
