This sounds really good.I have been waiting for something like this for a long time,especially that thing when a compartment was filled you were dead.No excitement of being pulled down to extreeme depths ,praying that you could get rid of the water before the hull is crushed because most of the time you would be dead before you reached huge depths.Also,I'm really glad it works with the major-mods.Just waiting for that link now

The first time I played this completed (not playtesting) version of DRM, I actually felt scared when being depth charged.

I was running for my life, but couldn't escape because of the damage. Then my boat sank to the bottom (near northern France) because my batteries were fried and my propellers were heavily damaged. I thought I could wait it out on the bottom and repair, but the damage was too much and the flooding was too heavy. I blew ballast and surfaced- surrendering.

Yey- we can download now!
Do you need to start a new career for this to work or just starting a new patrol will work?Thanks!

Thanks. Though I am still a little bit concerned about the floatability changes I made. Thinking about lowering those numbers again and slowing flooding times even more in the next release.

But OMG, SH3 is really hard now when using this mod. I am now a very cautious captain!

does the watch crew efficiency still suffer in this mod, or has that b een adressed?

I would try it with a new patrol. That should work.
