Hollywood Damage Mod Question?

Jason, Heres a quick question for you.
mid 1944, Type VIIC
I stumbled into a Bogue class carrier and destroyer escorts. I managed to put three fish into the carrier then hit CD.
I was getting clobbered by a trio of destroyers.
My boat had sustained substantial damage. I was working the repair crew back and forth to try and keep up with the flooding. Sitting on the bottom at about 100m. Forward battery destroyed, Aft battery damaged. Everytime I get some flooding under control the dd's make another pass and I start all over again. Obviously the end is near. The radio room had been damaged with heavy flooding(compartment shows yellow). Along with the two crewmembers I stuck the repair crew on it. The flood & pump icons showed up as expected. Finally after awhile the two icons disappeared and the compartment showed normal/no damage to repair yet blue water continued to rise in the compartment. Numerous attempts to stem the rising water level all showed compartment normal/no damage to repair.
After about 2 hours of this a depth charge landed right on the deck and thats all she wrote.
Why did the water level continue to rise in that room yet all systems were normal/functional? If the compartment were unrepairable wouldn't it have gone red showing destroyed or unrepairable.
With the exception of this mystery flooding everything with the mod is working out great.
