some questions from returning player

1 - How do I set a specific depth?, I cannot see this anywhere.

I am also running the Wolves of Steel mod.

If you click Ctrl, it should toggle the left-most vertical command menu to a depth gage that you can click on to specify a depth. Unfortunately as I recall you don't get the full range of depth options, only a window.

2 - Can I do anything about flooding?, or is it all done automatically?

Don't be at silent running. I assume this prevents repairs as it did in SH3. You can tell your crew chief to focus on flooding if he has enough morale and is not injured as was mentioned above.

Also you supposedly can click on the Chief icon at the bottom of the screen, and then from his shortcuts click on the hammer icon, which should activate the damage control team. But generally when I click on this is highlights but when you go back to this command it is off again. I don't know why.

3 - What is a good method for escaping destroyers that are searching for you?, I spent the last two nights trying to get away from a couple of Polish ones - it didnt end well...

I just made my first convoy attack against a convoy coming out of Southend. It was 1939 and shallow water. I hit the convoy and got away without ever being discovered.

Then the game crashed.
