Well, when I get my computer back, I might try the S42 then, and see if it does the same.

Activeuserplayerunits.UPC looks normal:
[UserPlayerUnit 1.Compartment 4.WeaponSlot 1.Weapon]
ID=TorpedoTube21inOldUS
NameDisplayable=21" Torpedo Tube
WeaponInterval=1900-01-01, 1999-12-31
WeaponSlotType=TorpedoTube
AmmoTypesAccepted=Mk10Torpedo
AmmoTypeLoaded=Mk10TorpUS
i noticed in the section above that the Mk10 is defined as an "OLD" US torpedo. in Weapons.UPC, the Mk10 is defined in two weapon types, Weapon 8 (21 inch) and Weapon 11 (OLD). However, the Mk14 is right where it should be with Weapon 8.

so, where else does one look to find the link between a sub and its eligible torpedos?
The ActiveUserPlayerUnits.upc has to be looked at in your Save folder, as mentioned above. The one in the game's "Data..." folder is the "initial" settings. That "TorpedoTube21inOldUS" refers to the tube, not the torp. The torp is after the comma. I haven't found a listing for a "TorpedoTube21inOldUS" either though... still looking in regular GFO
