Diving problems

I am running TMO 2.7 and when I go to new construction and Get a Gato the deep dive test is never completed because it won't go below 450 feet if I hit the dive key it still stays at 450 feet what am I doing wrong please?
Thanks in Advance

Go inside the con tower, should be some clickable dials with the 600 ft mark.

Now I got to go see about TMO 2.7

I thought 450 was a deep dive...

Not sure about completing the deep dive test, unless you're doing it for fun, but boat hard to control past 500ft....although you can get it down to 600 and more depending on boat, hard getting back up.

I have tried that - clicking on the 600 ft dial in the conning tower has no effect at all.

In TMO 1.9 most of the dials were clickable. In TMO2 he added the 3d interiors and that nerfed most the clickable dials. You can't just click any dial now. If it is a workable dial once you place your cursor on it you'll see a popup such as depth or speed. If you see that, then it's a workable dial.

Only a few exist now, but Ducimas felt you only needed a few and he's right. I think most exist in the con tower to the front over the wheel, just go around and test them with the cursor until you get the popup message.

That's the depth gauge I use in TMO2
