I thought the maybe it was just a bug with that ship and tried the Type XXI only to have the same issue. I'm not sure if its just with these two ships or really any other German submarine that also has a snorkel on it as well. I think I might just be doing something wrong however which is why I'm here asking. I've also noticed that on the Type XXIII and XXI I can't use the snorkel at periscope depth which I'm pretty sure I should. In fact in the XXI I can only use the snorkel if I'm surfaced!

firstly, welcome to subsim.
secondly, the snorkel can be used to run the diesels only. it will not refresh the CO2. it is a design flaw by Ubi.
not sure why the type 21 snorkel will not work properly. i'll look into that.
