Default 1.2 released

Initial sea trials were flawed and we had some trouble maintaining depths on all boats.

Discovered a new ratio to use for mass and displacement and have tested it on all boats with a more vigorous testing procedure.

The type VIIA,B,C will maintain depth at 100m when diving and 150 meter when crash diving.

Note: That in stock the VIIA is broken and will not maintain depth below 75 or more, this is fixed in this mod.

Type VIIC/41 maintains depth at 100m when diving and 170m when crash diving.

After all these changes we are still able to keep a nice rolling more accurate look to the submarines movement through the waves.

Change information and the link to download 1.2 is in the OP

What does that mean with "maintains depth" and the difference between Dive and Crash Dive? To me "maintain depth" means "won't sink unless I'm damaged some how". So how does the type of dive order issues enter into it?

To be more specific for VIIA,B,C if you order crash dive you will go 150m if you don't stop it. If you order dive you will go 100m if you don't stop it. Maintaining those depths.

By the way is there a mod that fixes the maintain depth issue with the VIIA already, I know you would know. If so I am curious how they fixed it compared to me.

Ahh ok, I see. Not aware of any mod, but since I upgraded to a VIIC by accident so soon I've never really looked.

Ya forgotten about bug, the ratio for mass to submerged and surface displacement was off. You could dive to 100m but not be able to maintain it going 1 knot. In stock you would always sink with the VIIA.
