I like to call it "multi-tasking"

I will be opening torp doors and clicking on sonar, hitting the hard to port key while clicking on the map...stuff like that.

I guess I can zoom using the wheel on my track ball right?

Is there an easy way from the periscope screen to open the doors using the mouse?

I also don't use the keyboard that much
<tab> for zooming and to ensure ctd
<Q> to open the doors
<space> to fire guns
<+> <-> and <backspace> for TC
and the function keys to jump to stations (although I use that more in SH3)

For all of these I can use the mouse execpt for the opening of the doors. I have seen the various interactive switches I can use at the various stations but is there one in the periscope screen I can use or one on the attack map?

Anyway, I am assuming it is not the "A" key that is causing the CtD but the function "maintain depth". Is there a way I can either remove the key mapping for that function or remap it to a remote (in the next room if possible) key?
