Default Compressed Air In Game?

I know what it does in the real world but does it have any meaning in the game? Do torpedos use it for launch? I can change depth without it.

I guess we could simulate its use in the game by using it EVERYTIME when we want to surface. The discipline is saying that you cannot surface if it reads zero.

Its the only thing I can think of.

I remember SH1 . every change of depth consumes compressed air , and more blow ballast.

so , it was very important don´t expend a lot of air or you are death
