Exactly what I get. I have to emergency blow 2-3X or I'm dead. Even happens with 0 hull damage.Originally posted by Mehring1917:
U-boat in Monsun. Got the same problem. Hull damage at 002, all other damage repaired and I can't control depth except by blowing ballast 3 times and surfacing. Otherwise I sink like a rock.
Another possibility is that major damage doesn't show in the hull damage numbers. What makes me suspect this is two occasions- 1st, the one above, I think I was hit by 2 destroyer shells, surely enough to cause more than 002 damage. Last night I was rammed and crash dived, half expecting to sink. But no! Ship suffered no damage at all, just rocked from side to side!
There's only one other thing I can think of. It's a well known fact that the damage model for enemy ships has been screwed-up since day one. For example, the early threads were loaded with skippers complaining about ships they had hit, sailing along at 10 knots, and only the bridge is still above water. I guess it is not beyond the realm of possibility that the silliness has crawled over to the damage on the subs.
