Dry Dock Trouble Shooting
I made this for anyone who has a problem with their sub can get help or advice.
(Please upload your sub post the link and state the problem or request if you're not sure how to do it.)

How does a junction box gets broken? Does it because of the water pressure or just because it's submerged?
I want to put a junction box in the ballast just to tidy up the wiring

water and equipment dont go well together.

Welp, I guess I need to find some other way to tidy up the wiring then

I placed some junction boxes in the ballast tanks and I've never really got a problem with it. Maybe it's just the outside pressure that destroys them.

EDIT: I just found out that prolonged exposure destroys them.

EDIT 2: Nope. For me it got overloaded. Wrong assumption.

Ok so this might sound........dumb.......but what kind of wall do I use that, well, doesn't make your sub have water in it, cause everything to die of pressure within a mili second

Use a hull.

Just drag the hull over the rooms, they're like pockets of air that can fill up with water.

ok so the hull is like the wall of the ship and the other walls are textures for the wall, got it

Ok heres another question so I got everything (mostly) working in my sub but for some reason the pumps in the ballast tank wont work, I have them connected to power and I have them connected to another jucion box which is connect to the nav terminal (I got it to have power directly from the reactor and its sole purpose is literally to connect the pumps to the nav terminal for remote control) also that junction box also blows every 5 seconds I fix it in the actual game.

Oh and also the lights dont work unless I connect them all to a button(s) to toggle them even though they should automatically without a(n) button(s)

Select the light and check the "IsOn" button.

For the junction boxes check the power generated by the reactor to match or be lower than the grid load if it's electrical, and make sure the boxes are in hulls completely if it's water damage. For the nav problem make sure the rectangular electrical base of the engine is completely inside a hull with only the nozzle sticking out, make sure the ballast pumps are set to on, and if it still doesn't work make sure the wiring is correct (The y control should go to the pumps' settargetlevel, and the x control to the set force on engine).
