Listen up, those of you who have asked how I make my sub, because I'm giving out a lot of handling advise that I utilize.

Yes I know how to make a catamaran sub.

Essentially what I did for mine is: I built two of my regular sub, side by side about 150 meters away from each other connected with Soryu floats so they didn't add any drag. Much of the rest of the major structural change was just speed tweaking, because adding the catamaran part dropped my speed from 194.7 to around 180.

I bet if you did this with your sub it would pass 100, though you also have to remember to (if necessary) shorten the design because just because you doubled the engines doesn't mean you double the horsepower too. Getting a good size/engine ratio is important.

Another thing I did with mine to stop it from angling as much into turns, is I used the extra 20 or so Soryu gauges I had left (because you can only use 50 on a ship) and made an extension back from the middle, in between the two ships and placed my rudder on that; this allowed me to use a large rudder (because adding one to each side makes the sub unstable in turns and adding four small rudders barely give it an effective turn), which enables the sub to turn much more quickly than it otherwise would.
