[REL] Fix to start TBT screen with Torpedo panel closed

[edit] This appears to work fine with patch 1.3

================================================== ================

It's been bugging me from the beginning that when you go to the TBT screen the torpedo tube panel starts out open/extended instead of being "closed" like the other two TDC panels do. Thanks to the inspiration of ustahl's thread about the PK panel (see here: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...493#post531493 ), I finally figured out how to tweak the torpedo tube panel so it will start out closed when bringing up the TBT screen, and still open up properly when you click the slide-out handle. This is another really simple one - the only change you need to make to the menu_1024_768.ini file is as follows:

[G44 I2]
Name=Torpedoes2
Type=1026;Menu group
ItemID=0x44150000
ParentID=0x44000000
Pos=694,-312,330,360
;Zone= 694 456 330 360 0 1 0x44000000 1 -0.5 0x44150000 -1 0.2 0 0
Zone= 694 456 330 360 0 1 0x44000000 1 -0.5 0x44150000 -1 0.2 330 0
Color=0xFFFFFFFF

If this has been bugging you like it's been bugging me, hope you enjoy!

PS - as with all these tweaks - I have tested this only with, and it only works with this exact number change, if you're running at 1024x768 resolution - if you're running a different/higher resolution, you'll need to use a different number to get it exactly where you want it.
