Quite a predicament!

1) I'd head for home. The damage you've obviously taken has rendered your boat vulnerable. You've learned some valuable lessons and gained much-needed experience . . . none of which will do the Kriegsmarine any good if you don't carry through to another mission because you've been sunk or captured.

2) Write more. I insist. Damn good story!

3) Also, check the compartments for remaining water. I had that happen to me once; the compartment had been repaired and flooding stopped (so all the visual indicators appeared as 'ship-shape and Bristol fashion) but because I'd shifted the crew out to rest I hadn't realized that, although the damage had been repaired and the flooding had been stopped, not all the water had been pumped out

This seems to be a trend here lately, this story, a piece by Miss Behavin, Golden Rivet's work and of course Brag's stuff

Very nice

Nicely written tale! I'd say head home UNLESS - you executed a crash dive when you were under attack by the planes and then aborted it during the dive. If you don't let the crash dive go down to its 60m and then level off, the dive planes remain locked in the down position and you tend to sink at low speeds. This used to be a bug, and I wondered if it might have been fixed by all the modding, but I think I had the same issue yesterday - crash dive, then set a shallower depth while diving, and then sink slowly thereafter. The solution is to execute another crash dive and let it run to completion. Can anyone else confirm if this is the case?
