Does that mean its possible to lie waiting on the seabed? somebody wrote that they got 1% damage from that.

But there must be a crushdepth right? That will be variable to the damage the sub has sustained.

At first I was like this:
But then I was this:

I had a similar experience (NO TC in use)

My targets disappeared, I went to the bridge and noticed the sky was passing in hyperspeed....looked around water too. Next thing I knew I was zipping across central Europe. Started getting low battery warnings and the game crashed.

Like you I was at first like this:
Then when the low battery warnings kicked off this:

It's failsafe. You cannot die.

That's why they removed the "depth under keel" command. You don't need it.
Running off to test... "CRASH DIVE EXTREME SPEED AHEAD !"

Extreme speed... dude that's awsome... wheres the power ups !

I donked into the bottom at about 160m last night, took 1% hull damage. Game seemed to be happy to let me although the sea floor might have been sloping upward.

I snuck into an east coast British port and nailed about 7 sitting duck ships. I thought "stupid game this is too easy." I hear some pings but I figure its the DDs stuck on the dock unable to do more than bark at me. As I was slinking away back to sea 7 DDs showed up and gave me a DC tickling for a few hours O.o
