Dive Planes

Patchman123 · 04-03-09, 10:06 PM

Is there any way to adjust the planes? I can't adjust the dive planes to the number of degrees that I want to set the dive planes to. For example, I want to set the dive planes to 45 degrees, but I can't due to the fact that it's not there in the game's interface or dials. It would be nice to be able to control the dive angle of the submarine, just like real submarine captains or (Herr Kaleuns) did that way I can control my dive and don't sink rapidly or take a deep dive when an enemy destroyer is attacking. It would be sure nice to control the depth when I'm sinking. Is there a way to add a dive planes control in the interface or dial? It would sure be nice.

My submarine also suffers damage when on the bottom, trying to repair in Silent Hunter IV. I can't recover the submarine.
It also says here that "Separate operators use the dive plane control wheels to adjust the angle of the bow and stern planes."

Apparently, the developers forgot to include this is in the game.

Major pain.
