One thing I cannot find is where one set's the lobby name - I've tried googling but to no avail.
Ive been trying the same and am really enjoying just using the different parts of the diving apparatus - but cannot set neutral buoyancy, i open the two vents front and rear but start sinking straight away. As far as I understood - when these are full this should leave me at neutral and as you say, movement plus the planes shoudl let me slip below the surface when I want to. Thats not the case - how did you do it Bob?
