RE: Battery self-regulating room?

Hi, Enrique.

Circuit-breaker cabinet, I guess there would be some rather big switches and perhaps fuses in that cabinet then. But I hope I can get my hands on a picture or drawing of this area since I want to stay true to the original as much as I can. My guess is that these switches would not be touched unless in an emergency since I think you control the use of the batteries from the aft torpedo room. Please correct me if I\'m wrong.

The actual modelling of the U-boat is done with my favourite modelling program Lightwave. To able to walk around inside and outside the model and control hatches and climb ladders and perhaps in the future also run the U-boat I have to write my own little 3d engine. This is done in C and the graphics API I\'m using is Opengl. And so far its coming a long nicely, yesterday I climbed down the ladder to the forward battery room for the first time
