I wonder if it is anyhow possible to implement a DD that is multiplayer playable vs submarines.
I think its no problem to implement a DD and bind depthcharge slots anywhere to the model.
I think the problem is, that SH5.exe has no possibility to set the depth for the depth charges.

Any modder knows more regarding this?

Well the AI can change the depth of the depthcharge but as far as I've been able to determine a player can't. In the past the surface ship mods would let you play as a surface ship against other surface ships. Most likely that'll be more than doable with sh5 but most ppl are holding off on many mods until all the patches are done. there's no way to guess how future patches will break current mods.
