Long time lurker here. Anyway I just got SH4 with the U-boat add-on and the U.S torpedoes, save for the mark 10, are missing their info (propulsion type, range, speed etc... ) when I mouse over them in base/on patrol. How exactly do I fix this? I know the mark 14's by heart but it's other torpedoes that I don't use very often that I find it a problem. I have screen shots if you need them.

Welcome. Maybe a corrupt install. Any MODs? Mine work on mouseover, but if yours don't, did you try clicking on them. The information should show in a box at the bottom of the screen.

I don't use any mods and they aren't there when I click on them either, I'm going to reinstall and if that fixes it.

:hmmm: Are you using metric values? It seems this problem only crops up when not setting your options to metric.

Just in case you don't get it working and would like a handy reference you can print or write down or whatever:

Mark 10
36 knots, steam, 3,500 yards, 497 lbs TNT

Mark 14
31/46 knots, steam, 9,000/4,500 yards, 643 lbs Torpex

Mark 16
46 knots, steam, 13,700 yards, 943 lbs Torpex, Not used during WWII

Mark 18
29 knots, electric, 4,000 yards, 575 lbs Torpex

Mark 23
A mark 14 without the 31 knot setting

Mark 27
10 knots, electric, 5,000 yards, 95 lbs Torpex, Passive Acoustic Homing

It's possible I've messed up a value or two, so someone will chime in if I have I'm sure.

One thing I like more than new members are new members who ask good questions. Welcome aboard, mate.:salute:

FWIW: The FOTRS mod has this issue, too.
