Functional Diving Bell - Stand alone

With this diving bell, you can now dive deep and keep safe. Stormworks being a SAR game, doesn't simulate air pressure and diving conditions... this bell does it for you!

It has been designed to work with any vessel equipped with a crane or a A-shaped support, even if it doesn't have a winch or a remote control system.

Max depht : 100m with its own winch, 200m if combined with a 100m winch crane. Pressure can be set up to 20 bar.

Principles :
while going down the bells keeps the internal pressure on the same level than surrounding water pressure, so that the passenger's lungs are filled with air at the same pressure than sea.
Once you stop at the depht you wish to explore, open the lower hatch. The water will stay out of the bell ! You can now put your wet suit on an dive !
When you go up, set-up manually the air pressure to realize your decompression dwells while staying dry.

Characteristics :
Water doesn't invade the bell when you open the hatch no matter how deep you are!
Simulates air pressure.
Calculate realistic water pressure depending on depht (10m = 1 bar)
Pressure equalizing function and manual set-up.
Comes with its own winches, can be lowered/raised from inside from whatever crane you want to use.
Sound/video system to stay connected to surface vessel.
Several safety features : door and hatch stay locked when there is a pressure difference /Emergency surface mode (by releasing a counterweight) / flares.

How to use (possible to use with one player only).
1 – get in the bell (using the door, or if you play alone, get the bottom of the bell into the water and use the hatch).
2 – suspend it over whater.
3 – toggle « equalize pressures » button.
4 – lower the bell at desired depht.
5 – open the hatch and dive!
6 – raise the bell back to surface and use the keyboard to configure decompression steps. NOTA : the keyboard only works when « equalize pressures » is OFF.
7 – Get back to deck and equalize pressures to be able to open the door.

I am now working on an hyperbare chamber that will complete this bell.

Although no diver myself I am been inspired by the very interesting DSV Triton (by Jed Sanders), that I recommend checking out !
