[REL] Increased Crush Depths

Well, it's not really an issue of installation but rather of modding the submarine .zon files.

The game has a built in crush depth of Test Depth * 1.5 for each sub.

So the stock crush depths should be:

S18 - 295'
Porpoise - 355'
Salmon - 370'
Sargo - 370'
Tambor - 370'
Gato - 440'
Balao - 590'

so, for example you can take the Porpoise down to 340 and hold it there forever if you are undamaged. That is a LOT lower than the test depth of 240'

I don't even see the need to increase the crush depths. If this game modelled stress over time, then it would be different.

In case of the Balao, you can't even dive it to it's crush depth. The subs don't seem to want to dive much below 500'.
