Maybe it doesn't eaffect the speed, but it does affect battles... surface-attacks are (without automated view stabelizer) nearly impossible, DDs have much more trouble tracking you with hydrophones, using the periscope is difficult, ships might sink faster in stormy weather. |
Also, you might be going at 11 kts, but you are having to travel up and down on the waves, which has the same effect as increasing distance(or decreasing speed). |
Very true but an exposed propeller due to wave riding significantly reduces the speed which isn't modelled in SH4. That's why in real situations, subs would be submerged most of the time to preserve fuel for that very reason.
