The overall excitement of the Sim has been limited, to prevent the possibility of Palpitations and Heart Attacks... Wink...!

What else is there to do when scuba diving, except swim around and look at stuff?

I actually find it quite complex... Almost as a flight simulator  Shocked
Driving simulators - 2 dimensions (excluding suicidal jumps and crashes Grin), left-right and forwards - backwards.
Forklift simulator - 2.5 dimensions, left-right, forwards - backwards and forklift up and down.
Flight simulator - 3 dimensions, left-right, forwards - backwards and up - down.
Diving simulator - 3 dimensions, left-right, forwards - backwards and up - down.

I'll have a retry tomorrow, but you are right, I was trying to shortcut! I've never had trouble getting into deep water before this.  Wink

Haven't even tried it yet, but it looks like it's more of a tool to teach about procedures... air remaining, NO2 level, and time at depth are pretty important stuff.
There is a lot more you can do, though, down there: wreck salvage, construction, hunting...

Off work today, so I finally made it into the water. Turns out I had to do the pool orientation first. It's not a bad little sim, lots of things to do. Earned a few bubbles today.  Smiley
