Default Clear the Bridge

I'm very new to SH5 and I'm still learning all the controls. The main Mod I'm using is Reaper7's UI but I can't seem to find a key or icon to use to clear the bridge prior to diving.I've been sunk twice because I cannot submerge.Can anybody help me?

hmm why not clearing the bridge then ?

...yes i know a good Kaleun will clear the bridge after his crew did, but you know this is made for the casual gamer, so the dev`s think You have to be a stupid casual Kaleun who is climbing down the ladder first...

...simply do that, let your crew on the bridge (to the fish with them, they are good swimmers), after that you command dive

Can a 'Clear the Bridge' command be added? Having to go down the ladder first has always bothered me... and everybody else.

if you try the DBSM colletion, there is such a command added, just sound simulated, but it helps for immersion. (Key Command "F")

Clear the bridge command that works if possible would be much more realistic for me.

The current version of the Mods by Darkwraith, MultipleUIs and his developing super mod Mega-Mod have two useful methods to get the boat down fast. The first is the teleport funtion, added to let you zip to various stations immediately. The second is a modification of the C for crash dive key.

Personally, I always use the teleport because I am always in water too shallow when I want to crash dive.

then change the distance to crash dive in your subs folder for like 50 metters and you will not hit the bottom in the future and you can use key C without problem

Is a "clear the bridge" command difficult to do?

I feel like a total punk going below decks first and then ordering a dive.

"where is the captain?"
"he's going below"
"are we being attacked?"
"I hope he dos'nt seal the hatch before he lets us know"
