No didnt work, once dived could not suface again, couldnt get above 9m. For some strange reason when i changed the depth to 8m from 5m, as above, 9m was as close to the surface as i could get, just seeing the top of the conning tower.

Hmmm odd
Am runniing a type 7a and set the cfg to 8 mtrs

When set depth to 6m still have bridge crew and diesels
When set to 7m have crew and electrics



Set to 8m and have no crew and electrics

Looks like may be a discrepency somewhere
Note when depth says 5m depth gauge usually says 4.5 or there abouts
Had no trouble surfacing either using S key - straight back up to 5m

Will test some more

quick question:
can you manually set motors to electric whilst surfaced?

Am guessing somewhere there is a trigger for the electrics to cut in at 6 mtrs
Though damned if can find it
Was a lot easier in previous versions to alter this and cant believe its not possible straight out the box

More moddable my @ss

perhaps with this new freedom in scripting there could be a manual switch for electric motors? infact individual engine telegraph controls would be great too.

Thats something to hope for as electrics were used to move in and out of port etc
