EK Vanguard Mk-II

Description
EK 'Vanguard' Mk-II
Light Destroyer

"The Vanguard class destroyer is a medium general-purpose combat vessel. Primarily armed with two heavy turrets mounted above and below, and a complement of small secondary coilguns. A monohull design was chosen for cost reduction and ease of manufacturing, giving the Vanguard all-round decent maneuverability but rather insubstantial armor protection for a military vessel of it's size."

I don't really have any specific plans for more submarines, feel free to suggest what kind of subs you are interested in seeing made. For example: should I bother making more industrial/cargo submarines like the Huxley, or a newer up-to-date carrier submarine, or maybe a submarine less campaign focused and more roleplay/traitors oriented?

Armory is the only room without drainage, if you really want I can add a pump in there and just set it to invincible so it doesn't have to be accessible for repairs.

Testing as of version 1.7.7.0: drainage systems for all other rooms are still working, and pump auto control is working. If pumps are spawning unwired or turned off it may be a modding overwrite issue or server issue.

You seem to have this information backwards. More ballast produces a lower neutral level not a higher one. (you can see this in action by going into the editor by selecting only a few hulls, versus selecting more hulls and see that the number goes down as ballast volume increases)

Pretty much all subs sink like a rock when flooded, unless it's an absolutely massive sub, because it only takes 7% of the total hull being flooded to reach neutral buoyancy. For example, both armory rooms, or the gunnery room, or the engine room being flooded wouldn't put this over the limit - however if the crew quarters (the largest room on the sub) were entirely flooded it would pass this limit.

No ballast pumps in Armory or Engine room and no drainage to accommodate. Some pumps aren't even hooked up to auto control. Neutral ballast value is super low which means this thing just sinks like brick if even one room gets filled.

Always love to see the EK subs around, my sympathies for trying still despite BT's updates being what they are on that kind of things :(

Funfact: the Winterhalter is the only vanilla sub they forgot to change, with 8k instead of 4.5k
