any idea why my sub is immobile on the surface though? the diesels did take a good bit of damage but they were repaired and the flooding was stopped in all compartments. My fuel tanks didn't leak (I still have about 3/4 of a tank left) but the diesels refuse to turn on on the surface. I can set the annunicator to anything that I want to (all ahead full, back 1/3) and the sub just refuses to move on the surface. When I dive the electric motors will take over, proving that there is no shaft damage or anything like that done. The other thing I'm not getting is why I would loose depth control. I could understand if the submarine was totally screwed and as soon as I dove I would start flooding from the damaged compartments, but that dosn't happen, it just starts going down by the aft end until I blow ballest, maybe a problem with the trim tanks? The damage to most of my systems are reporting is "Optimizing". Since the diesels will not start the batteries are not charging but strangely enough the compressor which took almost as much damage as the diesels did, is able to start and refill the air tank.
