SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - View Single Post - Increasing crush depth to a theoritical value

I saw a book at the library a few months ago about the history of submarines. For US subs the author took it for granted that the maximum depth was twice the test depth, not 1.5 times. On the other hand he provided no reference for that statement. I'll try to remember to get it out and post the title and author.

For SH3 I think it was TimeTraveller who made the wonderful crush depth randomizer mod. You would type in the crush depth (which he provided) and it would randomize it to be as much as 20% more and as much as 10% less that the listed depth, so you never really knew for sure.

Something like that for SH4 would be nice.
