Default 165 ft max depth?

Starting 1941 in the porpoise class and 165 feet is the max depth? Far cry from the 170 meters in a uboat.

Won't even let you go any lower than that if you wanted to see where it pops. Or am i missing something.

Yeahp you are.

Click the tab beneath the SHALLOW depth meter to get the extended depth meter. And you'll also have a mark for the sub's test depth.

BTW your speed and compass dials have similar tabs (click them and you'll see what I mean).

And you can always go deeper by hitting the dive icon, usually the D key. This will put you in a dive until you manually stop it.

One thing I love about TMO is all the workable clickable dials in the sub. You can set you're depth to at least 600 ft by the dials.

That would be an awsome standalone mod.
