Changing torpedo tubes.

[NEON DEON]

I am trying to make a boat with old aft tubes and new fore tubes.

The Sargo is the basis of my model.

I changed the sim files to reflect MK 10s both in the tubes and in the storage then I changed Sargo.upc

this line under stern torpedo weaponslot1/2/3/4

IDLinkWeaponIntervalDefault1= NULL, NULL, TorpedoTube21inUS, Mk14Torpedo

I changed it to:


DLinkWeaponIntervalDefault1= NULL, NULL, TorpedoTube21inOldUS, Mk10Torpedo

The torpedo screen for the boat when loading torpedoes shows the correct loadout in stern storage but the stern tubes themselves are now blank.

When I change the one line back to read TorpedoTube21US, The tubes come back loaded with Mk 10s. Not really what I want because I want to restrict them from using the other torpedo types without having to restrict the newer fore tubes.

Is there an id modifier to change this or is there a link file I missed changing? Or is this even possible to do?

I tried it with one tube and it worked but did not limit the tube to only the Mk10 as the weapons.upc lists. I even went in to the .sim file and changed the aft bunkers from "I" to "Mk10" and it still did not prevent loading other torpedos while in port.

I did notice above a mistake but it may be just a copy/paste mistake, but on the "old" tube you are missing the "I" in IDLink:

DLinkWeaponIntervalDefault1= NULL, NULL, TorpedoTube21inOldUS, Mk10Torpedo


But the tube did work.

The file you want to look at to see how this all works is Ammunition.UPC (there's one each for both the US and Germany).
