Credit goes to Xantrokoles on this one. He did the leg work to get the Snorkel ingame, I've just tweaked some things and fixed some bugs.

- Download
- Unpack into the SH4/MODS foler
- Activate in JSGME (Either the plain addon or the Type XXI conversion)
- Open the file: SH4/Data/cfg/Commands.cfg with the Notepad
and scroll down to: toggle_snorkel (Or use Ctrl-F)
- Add:
Key0=0x58,sC,"Shift x"
under the line:
;Key0=0x59,,"Z"
Coming in Beta Version 3.0
- Add the Type XXI U-Boat as a new sub instead of replacing the Type XVIII
Wishlist (If it's possible)
- Allow the snorkel to replenish crew O2
- Make the snorkel a unique upgrade available after a certain date
- Would be cool if the Type IX-D2 could have a more appropriate levered or telescopic snorkel instead of using the Type XXI model.
