I can't figure this out! I sent three fish into a ship and one hit its stern. The other two for some strange reason miss. I have the white "X" in the target map 1/3 of the way on the ship. Should I have it in the middle? Upon firing, the other torps, the ship disappears from the target map, but isn't sunk. Any ideas?

TIA!

Several months past,when I torped a ship,it de-rendered/vanished. No one had to much advise. I uninstalled all mods one at a time,trying to find culprit,no joy. Ordered better video card,reinstalled mods,defraged,Joy ! Got a 512Mb AGP card.

Yup- I noticed this in the Torpedo mission in Sub school (where I am at right now). I torp the cruiser, AND if I surface fast enough I can sink a couple of Sanpans too with the deck gun :cool:

BUT if I have to pump more than a few fish into the cruiser and take too long, the Sanpans disappear! It's like they use the Bermuda Triangle map.

I thought it was some sort of perceptual range, but this sounds more disturbing.

Any more educated observations welcome to this post as well.

PS_ allstock, no mods yet, and latest stock patch applied.

I think you don't set the mast height of that ship. If you set it, the X should be right on top of the target in attack map.
