Default Hatches and doors

Inside the U-Boat are hatches and doors incuding the exit to the bridge.....is there any reason for closing them, or are they just there for effect??

Thanks

I've only just started playing SH5, so im still sussing it out....for instance, if i leave the conning tower hatch open before diving and im the last man on the bridge, does it fill with water?

Also if before entering battle and getting hit, if i've closed all the doors inside, will it restrict flooding?

And, i order to dive but remain on the bridge, do i teleport inside the boat??

Unless you are using DarkWraith's UI Mod, you do not teleport on a crash drive or diving in general. His mod had an option for this, stock does not. It requires you to close the Conning Tower Hatch.

As far as the other doors\hatches, sadly this does not matter regarding flooding.

SH5 unmodded will not let you dive, unless you are inside the boat. If you are inside and order a dive the conning tower hatch will automatically close.

Also if before entering battle and getting hit, if i've closed all the doors inside, will it restrict flooding?
No, it won't make a difference. Each room is independent, with or without open hatches.

And, i order to dive but remain on the bridge, do i teleport inside the boat??
TDW's UI MOD has an option for that

I like to close the engine room door when I'm running full speed. Otherwise it get's pretty loud especially when charging batteries. But I have the U-Boat propulsion SFX mod.
