One of the complaints about SH3 was that the boat could "hover", sitting still without sinking. The NYGM supermod fixed it so the boat would sink at 2 knots or less, and everyone cheered because that was more realistic.

Now it appears that SH5, or one its mods, has that built in, and people don't like it. The old saying is true, you can't please everyone.
Steve,
Thank you for comment. So the silent speed is a real challenge for the uboot crew? I am really suprised by hearing that. hydroplanes are almost useless with less than 2 knots?
