Do I have some kind of hardened mod of IRAI, because seriously from 1 plane dive with simple machine-guns I had hull integrity decreased to 56%.

I still completed the mission and got back, but with very cautious methods, as soon as I saw an aircraft headed my way, immediately dive to 30m and continue the course underwater for like 4 km, in case the support was called, and in night, I used full power to move as far as I can. I had decent amount of fuel, but always have to keep some in reserve, in case of unavoidable confrontation with warships, where you are forced to dive and wait.

I've never encountered torpedo bomber planes, I have a feeling, i'm not going to enjoy my first encounter, although it keeps the tension up, I like that. But the magnetic torpedoes are not working anyways, right? Just have to move or dive and move to avoid contact.

OH, AND please do tell me if the jiggly surfacing with the mods is realistic, because I'm not sure myself, it feels kinda cheap looking, what do you think? Trevally, what kind of mods are you using for sea parameters and buoyancy?

I am playing on 100% realism with all the mods and hardly ever get detected by planes . I am only up to may 1940 though . What year are you playing in ? I stay well away from the coast where possible . Stay away from english ports .

This is still my mod list here http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=190656

I do not use an environ mod. I have made my own but it is mostly stock game setting.

A mod dealing with this and many other related issues is on its way to come here:

IRAI has nothing to do with machine-gun damage: it deals "just" with AI

But it has to do with accuracy and tactics.

The only adjustments i know is in iRAI .

IRAI_0_0_37_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Scripts\AI\init
adjust the max numbers
No idea if this works on planes as well as ships .

You said well: it has to do with accurate AI tactics, but not with accurate armaments. This is where the below said WIP mod will come in help.

Anyone knows if ships after sinking go underground is a bug or it's mod related fix or something...? Under ground like trough it, they hit the underwater's ground surface and after 3 seconds or so, they go trough it.

My game is doing that, not a big fan of that, I preferred that they stay there...

Is this me only having this? Anyone knows how to fix this?
