1. For now, no. This situation has not occurred often, but very rarely. But there was when I was doing patrols during the campaign.

2. Small technical question for debug version: Does the text "dud" is encoded or displayed by any of the items xx_menu.txt?

In case it is not generally known: It is important to set the torpedo depth not deeper than the keel of the target ship
It's like a mistake. Should not torpedo hit the keel because then hits at very high angle and the chance for reflection from the hull is greater than 90%. Torpedo should go below the keel in a minimum distance from the keel. Preferably about 50 cm. But 1 m below the actual draft is completely effective. Only one torpedo in good place can sink a big carrier or battleship. At 2 meters explosion distance can only damage the target. At three meters is usually ineffective. Unfortunately, the actual draft a little different from that in the settings depending on the load and weather conditions. So sometimes you have to guess. During the storm the best at all to shoot only in the side of the ship because its draft can vary by up to 3 meters.
