My TypeXXI BadWeatherGuns mod works fine.

Question:

Can a key be modded-in that extracts/retracts the forward diving planes, AND alter the XXI's seakeeping accordingly?
And maybe even further: is there a way, to tell the helmsmen to set the forw.diving plane to max.up (at "max-surface") and keep it there as long as I want to?
As I see things, this should help keeping the bow up...in GWX 1.03, the XXI has a strange rough-seas behaviour. As if it doesn't have enough boilancy.
Sometimes, the watch-crew has several meters of water above their heads, and still going deeper...and they stay there, but you can hear the diesels gasping for air.

I know this is a stock SH3-issue, that has been coped with in several ways.
But in the case of the XXI, the current 1.03-settings turn out weird.
The stern is fine....it's the bow that freaks out.
