if you activate additional to MFCM, "MFCM cash dive workarround" optional mod, and you command a new dept or simply command "hold current dept" from surface also while still on the bridge, the command is executed...

...but immediately after the command is spoken, there is a crash dive ordered, which will work while all men including you are still on the bridge !

so this means, you realy have to hurry getting fast enough through the conning hatch, before it get automaticaly closed !!! (if its closed, it is to late, mostly you cant open it again)

...while on that hurry you wont notice to much that the crew is maybe still on the bridge, and it seams that they are also a bit more motivated

pros:
- diving commands via "keys" seam to be more "reactive", also below surface
- ability to give a crash dive "alarm" command while still on the bridge

contra:
- Automation scripts which use dive orders cause a crash dive if above 10 meters dept !
- diving commands like "set dept" or "hold dept" above 10 meters dept cause a crash dive (no "decks awash" possible)
- Surfacing using "blow ballast" cause a crash dive by reaching 10 meters dept. (but you could command "to surface" just before reaching 10 meters, to prevent a crash dive)

i did not know about pros and contra because i never used that optional mod by heretic - i used only the stand allone version but thanks - good to know

btw - i do not remember - if, i do not have you sound collection mod installed, when i order crash dive the stock fille is playing the same cool ,,alaaarm'' sound or not?

i am using your sound mod since i started to play sh5 and i do not know how is the stock version - just curious
