Default [REL(in a way, I guess)] better hatch open-closing sound

One thing I noticed on my install of SHV was the way the doors and hatches opened and closed.

They sounded too wooden, too, un....un-hatchy. I didn't feel comfortable with a door making that noise being my only bastion between me and the torrents of water rushing into the other compartment. so I did a quick fix. here's how I did it.

I dug around in data\sound for a few minutes and found the files I'm looking for.
these files are called
Metal_door_5_open and
Metal_door_5_close

Rename these with something simple, in case you don't like the changes, like add a random letter or 6 after the file name.

now scroll down to the files that start with Submarine

find the two files named:
Submarine Door open 2
Submarine Door Close 3

Copy and paste them right there in the sound folder (you should see "copy of Submarine door etc")

and, you guessed it, rename them accordingly,
"Submarine Door open 2" becomes "Metal_door_5_open"
and
"Submarine Door close 3" becomes "Metal_door_5_close"

I haven't tried it yet but it's something that's bugged me from the get-go and I'm trying it out now.

Just a little contribution while I get the rest of this modding mumbo-jumbo figured out

Default

the one door sound file plays throughout the sub.

so might sound great as a external hatch , will sound to heavy for inside the sub.

i already looked into these files. left the defaults they are fine imo.
