Hiz to all!!! I'm new to this forum and to SH4 and naturaly i have questions :p.

Now i started a carrer in 1944 in a balao class sub but i cant take it more tha 450 ft depth because i cant find the way to instruct the crew to take the boat deeper tha then depth meter. I have tried ctrl+d but nothing happens with the "D" i go up to 330ft or sth close. I use the Silent Hunter 4 v1.4 without any mod. Anyone tha can help??


thanx

Just wondering, why do you guys want to go that deep anyhow?

Oh and welcome to sub sim

Why not go???

Avoiding depth charges, perhaps. The increase in sink time reduces their accuracy.

I dont know no reason really. I rarely go below 200 feet personally. I guess if you want to 'test' the ship out have fun

I usually go up to 350ft or more to reload torpedoes/repair right after i have attacked a convoy the time usualy the destroyer search for me but the hit me sometimes with the DCs so great depth is sometimes usefull.

Thats like buying a Corvette and never going more than 55 mph in it.
