Good work guys.

The curve is not as steep as I'm going to use for LWAMI 4.xx, but it's definately the correct shape now. Amizaur's data showed that torpedoes indeed do have a peak efficiency roughly 15-25% below max speed (although some, like the TEST fall outside of that with a max speed achieved at something like 26kts out of 40kts max speed), depending on the torpedo.

If the speed is set too slow, the engine becomes inefficient, and the weapons are typically not used at speeds slower than the peak efficiency speed for max range, I mean, not that I could imagine.

Cheers,
David
