Why we sank

Hi, i think the program doesn't allow you to know the events that lead to sinking, but i belive that the sequence is:

A close depth charge (or a mine) explosion that produce both:
1. internal systems damage (not linked with flooding!)
2. a leak trough the hull that cause flooding.

So the point 2 is what bring you to the bottom. Internal damage, as modelled in SH3, is not directly linked to sinking.

When you are killed, i think (but i'm not sure!) it is because the leak is so heavy that every compartment is sudden flooded!
