External Torpedo Reserves
Not to seem like a complete idiot, but for some reason my external reserves aren't loading. I'm pretty new to the game, and i'm wondering if theres something i've done wrong. any suggestions?

I had that happen too, make sure your not in silent running and the weather is good enough, if you cant man the guns then you cant load torpedoes off the deck.
The just drag the torpedoes in the overview screen from one slot to the other. |

If you want to be realistic, don't load externals at any other than a flat calm and only at a dead stop. Heck, if you want to be realistic, don't load internal torpedoes in bad weather unless you're very deep, and never reload during combat. Steep dive angles could make on come loose, and they do weigh about a ton. Not good for crew or the hull if that happens. But the actual advice is correct: drag the external to an internal slot (NOT directly to the tube), and wait an hour or so, because it takes that long.

Hi Kimmers
Be on the surface, torpedo room manned, drag and drop it in a empty interior spare torpedo slot. it can take along time to actually load this torp, so, be patient...
