I have to say there ARE some real damage screwups in the game, particularly re: the conning tower bug (which has plagued my last career and forced me to mess with saves to remove damage constantly), and the unexplained damage occasionally taken when a ship passes over you (I also experienced this).
I'm using nvdrifter's Das Boot moments and the Invulnerable Conning tower mods which seem to help out a little (the former by increasing the boat's overall resistance to damage slightly and increasing flooding times; the latter by reducing [but not killing] the annoying crew-killing conning deck issue).
This really drifted to the top of my hopes as far as fixes in future patches. Real key issue here folks.
