In both situations the sea has been rather calm. The debris parts bounced like rubber balls as soon as they hit the surface and didn't came to a rest. So these parts were not floating. I didn't try to find out if this happens in heavy seas, too. Didn't imagine that there could be a difference.

thanks for the feedback. Looks like I've come up with a solution to the problem. Currently testing it now

v0.0.5 released. See post #1 for details

Debris problem should be fixed now. Secondary explosions are more exciting now also

Incredible fast update service, DarkWraith...

Well, the debris don't jump back sky-high any longer when they hit the water. But they are often spinning and tumbling at high speed while they seem to hover a metre or so above the water. Explosions are nice, splash effect looks realistic, too. But watching the hovering debris... for me, it breaks the bubble. The movements of the particles simply don't look right. Would enjoy it more if the swimming debris effect would be deleted without substitution, just my 2 cents.

Anyway, thank you very much for all your incredible mods and every effort contributing to a more realistic impression.
