Hello, new to this board, but have been playing US submarine sims since Silent Service II, and even that one on the NES.

The computer will usually automatically set depth to 6 ft, unless otherwise changed by the user. However I remember back from the Silent Service days that 6 ft was usually optimal for mediem to small merchant ships . . . 1-5 feet for destroyers and 10-15 feet for large merchant ships and large warships. Does this still hold true in Silent Hunter four? As I sank a Hiryu at 700 yards with four fish at 6ft depth about the USS Salmon, before transfering to a new boat in Pearl.
