Default Sub sinks

If I'm not near the surface, my sub just can't hold depth when stationary. Which means when I'm going right down to 180m to get away from stuff, i keep having to give it a burst of speed to stop it from going down and crushing me.

I don't think I've had this problem before, so it may be mods.

I think you should take a look at this mod from TDW that fixes just this problem. Should sort it all out for you.

Thanks, while i've got a problem thread going.

Anyway to stop the depth and speed dials being inaccurate?

they show accurate readings, but clicking where you want is often lower than it'll set.

actually that mod/fix fixes it for depth, not speed though.

SteelVikings Interior Mod might fix your problem with incorrect dials

dont understand?! thought depth was the problem and you used speed to keep depth so how can it just fix depth when speed was not the problem??

or maybe i misunderstood.


EDIT: oh maybe you ment the speed dials, yeah was not suppose to fix that.
