These questions should really be posted in the general SH4 forum, not the MODS forum.

Click below the depth setting guage. It changes from fine shallow control, to deep.

or press "D" on your keypad, and you will dive until you press "A" on the keyboard. you can go all the way to the bottom this way, if you choose.

Just in case anyone ends up in here that wants to know for modding, the files involved in changing these parameters are in your \data\Submarine ZON and CFG files.

I'm not sure if you have to change one or both, but CCIP altered these for a depth mod he made for 1.2, the mod is still there if anyone is looking for it. I don't think it is 1.3 compatable though.

* Actually, take a look at your subs config and tweak files. Trick is to set the dive depth below the crush depth. -this will let you dive deeper, and keep you on your toes with respect to the diameter of your respective hole in the ocean. (Confirm not meters)
