"We've taken serious hull damage, no submerged operations are safe. We need to get back to the barn"

The first would be what you'd hear if you took no damage at all yet, or some minor amount.

The second would be if you sustained damage that manifested itself inside the boat.

The third is the same as the second, but above some threshhold, a hole damage template (or equiv damage) is what I would thing..

The forth is above some very critical level.

Anything that right now would make a hole template in the boat should get #3+, IMO. All would have some chance of total failure except undamaged at all.
I would like this also Tater but I think it is not achievable. I think the only avenue we have is possibly using the SH3 file for % damage. Could be wrong here. I was not a big fan of % damage in SH3 and always had it off.
