Default I know the answers to these questions but think about this!

Riddle me this Batman

Does the ocean move at a slower pace when it has a calm surface layer vs tall waves with an equaly larger under curent or slower?

Does a wave have the same force at it's peak as it does at it's lowest point above and bellow the surface?

When the wind is blowing accross the surface of the ocean how long does it take before the ocean starts to change as far as creating waves and at what strength does the wind have to be I mean how fast does it have to blow and how long?

When does the surface waves start to create a more intensified bellow surface wave and how does the current of the ocean change vs intensity of waves and wind blowing accross it's surface?

Then when does the intensity of the waves and current start to effect a Ship and sub enough where they actualy have a problem staying upright and manuvering through the waves and current?

Then the bigest problem is how far can I go with adjustments before they change and start to do the oposit of what you are acheaving because at one point in each ajustment they start to reverse effects vs the other wave states if you don't work them out evenly enough.

But thanks for understanding that it takes time and I promise as soon as it is done I will post all results and have a new download as well that will also include the 30m underwater visability and the 9km above water visability changes.

One of the first things you will notice with the changes is the wind will have a much greater effect over the oceans surface "IE" in high winds the ocean will be a lot more turbulant and violent in wave effects.

Second as the wind calms down the waves will slowly work their way down into more of a rolling effects with much more ballance to them like you would see comming onto a shore line but still be varried in shapes and sizes and you may even notice from time to time roll over peaks like the tip of a wave is reaching for the sky with a finger.

Just a teaser to let you know how much things will change.
