Sub behavior in heavy seas....

well according to the Das Boot movie:p the Uboats shot up then came crashing down in rough weather, in a real situation some uboat watch crew were found to be drown or missing when the next watch went up on deck.

I was hoping SHIV would have this heavy seas effects on the US boats.

BTW, anybody run in to any crazy weather like the Monsoons that were talked about? Or was this just more BS from the pre-release hype machine?

I've seen some rough weather yes if that what you mean , heavy fog and rain for days with winds 15 mps.

If you look at the sim.cfg file, you'll notice the waves settings are appreciably lower then even stock SH3. Ordinarly id have ramped this up already but im inclined to think they lower wave settings were for a reason.

On a side note, i was happy see the watchcrew has their raingear on when it rains
