Plz excuse a noobie question. In the academy torp mission, after downing a few merchants, I decided to surface so as to run faster after a distant target. Upon closing I submerged ['S' key] but dove well below periscope/torp depth. I then had to set a manual rise to get back into the fight. Is there another command to submerge to 'hover' depth?

"P" is for periscope depth. It takes you to around 11-13 meters.

I thought the 'S' key was to surface...?

I think it's "D" for dive, "C" for crash dive, "P" for Periscope depth, "S" for surface and "E" for emergency surface (blow main ballast)

From an English(UK) keyboard layout.


They should keep you going.

Yup, I meant to type 'D' for dive, but was thinking about my initial surfacing. Thanks again all.
