CO2 Won't Go Down

Howdy folks, my first topic here is regrettably about a possible bug I've run into with my current career in SH3. It seems that my CO2 levels aren't reducing when I come up to the surface. I'm currently at 3% according to the gauge and while that's within tolerance, I anticipate needing to do long dives throughout the rest of the patrol (so far, I've been trying to sail north through the Irish Sea in July of 1941 -- you can probably see why I'm staying under for such a long time!)

I don't know if the CO2 has been accumulating as I've been doing this or if it's just from one dive that hasn't cleared up yet, but either way, I'd prefer it if my men didn't have to die from choking on their own stink.

Even after a full day of sailing on the surface, the CO2 levels stay the same. I've tried saving the game while underwater, then loading up and surfacing with no luck; the CO2 refuses to go down even after a whole day on the surface.

I'm using GWX with h.sie's hardcoded fixes, MEP v3, loaded via SH3 Commander.

At this point, I'd be fine with just editing the save file to bring the level back down to zero. However, I've poked through a few of the files and I can't find an obvious place where I could tweak this. Does anybody have any suggestions about how to do that, or about any other fixes for this?

Thanks for any and all assistance with this!
