Default [REQ] Mod to correct the maximum depth ?

Hello

Actually, in SH5, the maximum depth for the U-Boats is 180m without damages.

It seem to me that this depth is not correct. The U-boat could go down at more than 200m in reality.

Is there a way, or a mod, to correct this ?

Thank you

Default

lifted from 7A's cfg file:

[Properties]
PeriscopeDepth=12;meters 12.5
SnorkelDepth=12;meters 12.5
CrashDepth=71;meters - is actualy 70, and will never reach 71, it will dwingle at ~70.5 - fix for updating interface. [Saitan Catalin]
MaxDepth=200;meters
DiveDepth=40;meters
SurfaceDepth=5;meters
TorpLaunchMaxDepth=20;meters
StormConditions=11,0.4;max wind speed [m/s], max rain intensity [0,1]


max depth is set to 200 meters for the 7A.

Thank I've seen it.

But for the type 7b we have

[Properties]
PeriscopeDepth=12.5
SnorkelDepth=12.5
DiveDepth=40;meters
CrashDepth=70;meters
MaxDepth=215;meters
SurfaceDepth=5;meters
TorpLaunchMaxDepth=20;meters
StormConditions=11,0.4;max wind speed [m/s], max rain intensity [0,1]

though, many damages appear after 180 m. I've made a try. After a depth at 195m, the hull integrity is at 69%.

Are there some others parameters to change ?

I believe this is linked to crew morale and experience isn't it?

I would check there...

I don't know but I would like to change it a little. I think that the damages could begin at a depth about 210-220 m.

It seem to me that this setting would be more correct according to the reality

I believe you have to edit the ZON file associated with that particular boat to change the max depth.
