You misinterpret me. My intention isnt to get a fleet boat to dive as fast as a uboat, albiet it could dive as fast as a type9 (maybe even faster). Wartime dive for a US fleet boat was around 35 seconds, with a 45 second dive being the bare acceptable minium for a crew in training.
In SH3, a type 7 had a floodrate of around 9,000 to 10,000. A type 21, or type 2, (even faster divers), had a flood rate of around 12,000. By comparsion a type 9 had a flood rate of 7,000.
A type 9D2 in SH3 had a such a floodrate (7,000), and took 45 seconds to dive. A reasonble figure. So why is it, that a Fleet boat in sh4, has a floodrate of 20,000 by default, and is ALOT slower?
Somethings not right there. My attempts have been to figure out the answer to that question. Somethings not right with the physics themselves, as increased speed tends to make you dive a little slower when it should be faster. In short, i feel that the floodrate is the tip of the iceberg of a larger problem. Another reason why ive been looking at it, off and on, as patience allows.
