I rather have this mod installed than use stock.

There is nothing wrong with it at the moment some additional tweaks in future versions.

The problems in the last 10 posts are IMO in the eye of the beholder, the boats move so much better in the seas than in stock.

Each to their own of course, but in my opinion even if I didn't make the mod, I would certainly still be using it.

Just read your documentation. I will try this mod tomorrow. One question though: Periscope depth is 14m which you say is historically accurate, but what are the max heights of the scopes (relative to sea surface)? Can you adjust those to be same as stock??

That would help a lot in bad weather, and I believe it is realistic.

I think it might just be the A. I was in a VIIB earlier testing something and it was riding between 5-6 in rough seas, so that seemed good. The A never got above 6 even in calm seas.

Actually, the VIIC rides very low also. In rough seas, it acts fine, but in calm seas I am getting at least 1/3 of the aft deck submerged when moving at full speed.

Edit: So to be more clear, I am decks awash at all times in calm seas with the VIIC.
