I waited for the icon to end (seems logical to me) and launched...i hit, but with a dud 
It’s noticed that if we pre-heat, the torpedo has greater chance to be dud...is it why i got one? |
The ability is active right away and it will last only while the icon in upper right corner is active (a bit dumb , I know, but that's how it is)...
Same goes for careful radiomen (or to say better "fast telegraphists" :hmm
ability and pretty much all others...
SPOILER: "dud" warning in the description is "fake", but don't tell anyone...
But, I have a big dilemma should I leave pre-heat ability available because I really don't like the fact that even steam torpedo will gain range bonus from it. The percentage values are not so high, but again, it still bothers me...
I have already removed torpedo damage related passive and active abilities even though I used quite minuscule bonuses so far . They were too unrealistic honestly.
But, I've added instead new "
Speed up those boys Kurt, damn it!" special ability . Depending of his moral/efficiency /restfulness points (call it what ever you like), Kurt will take a whip or silently say "
I am doing my best Captain..." without any "No, No" animations...
