I get a little annoyed with the inability to dive from surface too. Would be nice to order dive, see the ship start to sink then jump down the hatch in the nick of time!

It does not come out well in a screenshot, when you order a crash dive, they will come down very quickly, sometimes as here, landing in a crouch and then standing up and moving to their station. In a normal dive, they will come down in a more orderly fashion. The watch officer even comes down the ladder and moves to his spot near the sonar station. When you surface, the process is reversed. Very neat to watch and very immersive.

All the animations were already there in the game. I dont know why the devs had not implemented it in the stock game. I presume it is because there is some clipping with some crew members going through others. Hopefully, the final product will eventually appear in a patch.

Personally, I've fallen off the ladder several times myself in my excitement to get away from Dieter. Then there was the time I was daydreaming while climbing up the ladder from the deck to the conning tower - and ended up going DOWN the ladder on the other side rather than turning left to head for the hatch...

And, YEAH for Tom Hanks, but that Polar Express version, chock-a-block full o'Lucky's, "uncanny valley" was...really creepy!

Has anyone seen the masking stuff they occasionally run on Attack of the Show or Web Soup? Also too close to the, "uncanny valley" for me!
