Circulating torpedoes

[sayaret]

I just got a dud? (i had this option off) torpedo that after if left my sub start circulating around my boat (sometimes very near me) At the same time i was being attacked by a destroeyer and when it was ramming me (just above me) it was hit by this circulating torpdo and sank.

I guess so, read up your history it happened actually. :)

I recall that one of these actually sunk an American sub and nearly killed every crewman on board. It was the last torpedo they had too.

The Tang for example.

I got sunk by one myself...it turned on me the damn dog :)

Not a dog, there known as fish and he reported he had duds turned off!! Guess that shows you how bad they really were, even when you have the feture turned off they still dont work.

The Tang for example.
Precisely the one I was thinking of. Someone on that boat angered the wron diety...

Regarding dud torpedoes and other malfunctions, these will occur - at a much reduced rate - even with the dud torpedoes option disabled. This in order to keep the flavor of the time, when technology was not after all 100% reliable.

:o

That is such a cool feature (seriously, there were losses due to this by american subs, and suspected losses among U-boats due to this!)
