One of the complaints about SH3 was that the boat could "hover", sitting still without sinking. The NYGM supermod fixed it so the boat would sink at 2 knots or less, and everyone cheered because that was more realistic.
Now it appears that SH5, or one its mods, has that built in, and people don't like it. The old saying is true, you can't please everyone.

It is also very important not to observe depth scale command like true"depth selector", it's rather like command for taking in and pumping out water from ballast tanks. With depth scale you're controlling weight of the submarine, not depth directly. I'm preparing small video how to do this but it will take some time...
EDIT:
And, here's the video...

I think those few post are going to be useful here too...
