Sudden Sinking during high TC

I know you were probs near the surface but as a general warning, if you dive in high level TC (can't be too sure on the specific speed i'm afraid) your ship crushes at a much reduced depth. Had a porpoise crush at 50 meters in TC and 135 meters at TC x1.

Not sure why. I'm going to assume the programmers are gods for the moment and have implemented some physics based crush depth calculations using dynamic stress theories in game which don't account for the sharper rate of change in pressure resulting from an increased TC.
