Hi JT
The shortcut for Silent Running is the 'Z' key.

Just a quick question regarding the 'Sub on bottom fix' in the patcher; I got hit by a plane and started flooding in the front 2 compartments, dragging the bow under and sinking in 30m of water. Hit the seabed at about 3 knts and came to rest after I dialled in a depth lower than the sea floor hoping to sit there and repair. Unfortunately, no matter what TC I set I kept jumping around and taking more damage, eventually destroying the pressure hull and bulkheads in the torpedo room, and going to a watery grave.

Next career I found some shallow water and went to periscope depth and stopped, then I dialled in a lower depth than the seabed and came to a rest on the bottom. This time, with no flooding I was able to bring up the TC without taking damage. So, if I have flooding and start to sink with no way to maintain depth off the bottom, am I screwed?

Agreed some of the more basic common questions can be found there however don't be afraid to ask the more detailed questions not covered there.

Thats strange, i always get the message before i reached the circle, but it could be removed from log if you reload the game.
Try to accomplish your patrol just by looking for targets on your own (patrolling in circles gives you almost nothing anyway, only important are hits), reload game in docks and try it next patrol.

It would still be in the Captain's Log as a radio message showing the date and time unless you exited the game without making a save.

As i finally found time to try 1.0.5 from friday evening i have to say every change made my experience much better yet, thank you for awesome work again.

Particularly sh5 UI as default UI is great chose, because now it allows me to order course and depth precisely without try and fails.
I like even current avatars more, because now it makes sense more than before.

Previous mods were more beautiful but very less usable, so it does make sense to have usable UI at default with possibility to make it more nice but less readable (controlable)

Thanks

This is also an old sh games issue. When you sink to the bottom due to flooding you should then:
- Sellect maintain current depth command or any other shallower depth
- use all available crew abilities for faster repairs
- don't use tc higher than x2

Note that this will only work in case your compartments aren't fully breached.

Thank you Vecko. Guess I could just avoid getting hit in the first place too right?
