Question about RUB and crush depth...

[Hartmann]

The crush depth in this mod is the stock values or is modified for more realism or acuracy ??


thanks

Stock values. The standard game now features more accurate crush depths. They seem close enough to the real values that I felt no adjustment was needed. The only one that's off by any significant margin is the Type VIIC/41, and SH3 Commander fixes that.

If you want to modify the crush depths check out TimeTraveller's Crush Depth mod (I believe it's available here on this site). It's a handy program that mods a few other parameters as well.

i heard about TimeTraveller's Crush Depth mod
but i don´t know that stock values are accurate except tipe VIIc/41

i thought that values are very conservative

thanks

TimeTraveller's crush depth tool was originally created to help players modify the original game's crush depth values, which were wrong in many cases. The developers addressed the crush depth issue in a patch and the depths were made more realistic. Before the patch came out I did some research on realistic crush depths and tried to figure out a realistic figure from the various sources (many of which disagreed with one another) that were available. The end results I got were almost exactly what the developers arrived at in their patch. The figures we arrived at independently may be conservative, but there are some seriously wacky numbers floating around, such as the 400m or even 450m crush depth that some sites list for the Type VIIC/42 (a boat which was never even constructed, so any crush depth listed for it is - in my view at least - pure fantasy).
