Add One More To Patch 1.3

Hi Everyone,
I entered the harbor to Kolonia, I fired two torpedos and sank the two merchents that were in port. I surfaced and proceed at back emergency since the harbor is to narrow to turn around. I increased the time compression and I started to notice that my depth gauge started changing from 16ft-18ft to 17ft-19ft,19ft-22ft and this continued until about 27ft-29ft and the sub started diving/dropping like a rock stern first shortly there after. I set the engines to all ahead flank and emergency blow X2,the sub barely slowed down and it slammed to the bottom at about 10 knots+600 ft......hull breach bye bye. I reloaded the game and tried the same thing in shallow water.

I duplicated the unexplained dive and I tried ahead flank and blowing my ballast and I still slammed to the bottom of the ocean floor at 200 feet. Then after giving the order ahead flank and blowing the ballast the sub finally began to rise after a few seconds(took longer then usually).Try duplicating this error, it is rather annoying when it happens. In SH3 I finished off a British Destroyer that I had to torpedoed by going in reverse and firing my deck gun. I now I could not duplicate that in SH4 if I tried obviously.

Also there is a dedicated sticky thread there; you don't have to start a new one which will disappear very soon.

You was victim of the called "Domino Effect", sure during the time compression you picked up some damage, and then you have an uncontrolable sink, crash speed makes lot of more damage appears as a domino droop...

Damage ?
The Japanses had NO guns at port , NO DDs, NO bunkers and NO planes so there was no damage received at any time during time compression. There was 0 damage when the boat began to dive.
