I am not certain about it KM, but memory tells me that the human-editable portion is in the NSS_SubName.cfg file, specifically the periscope depth setting - which is given in meters, btw. Anything else is in the game's files (exe and StateMachineCtl.act??). I might be wrong about that though, and potentially at a high-percentage chance...
If you are experiencing the dive alarm though, at depths lower (greater) than periscope depth, then there is possibly something else going on in the modded game. Take the stock game and take a IXD2 out for a drive, and see what it does in the Stock game, as compared to the boat you have in Dark Waters. Also, remember what we have found in FotRSU, in that ANYTHING set incorrectly in a player's sub can and will adversely affect other aspects of the boat's operations. This includes the clothes that the crew wears...

in DW and no other modset that i am aware of, the boat can be submerged at any depth and if i order increased depth, the dive alarm sounds. i'll look at the PD settings in Subname.cfg but if we are at PD, no matter what that is, the dive alarm should not be activated until we surface and resubmerge.

Anytime you are above PD and call for a change in depth down, you will get the sound. If you are below PD and change depth to lower, you should NOT get the sound. but if you are at say 13.8m in a IXD2, due to rough seas, and call for 100m, you will get the dive alarm, even though you are already submerged, since PD is set at 14m. If you called for PD, and are already there, you should not hear the alarm, nor if you call for deeper from there. Say you call for a regular dive to PD from the surface, you will get the dive alarm, and then you decide you need to Crash Dive since the plane is closing fast, you will again hear the dive alarm, in addition to any other sounds associated with a Crash Dive sound, even if you are already at 10m depth. If you are hearing the alarm while at PD or deeper and then calling for deeper water, something is most likely wrong with the boat's configuration somewhere.
