Is morale low? I think that may affect quite a few skills and it appears bugged. Check this mod out, it works great for me:

Sorry for my ignorance, that is an active command? Not like the other passive stronger torpedoes one can also invest in?

another question: is it possible to detonate right under the keel and break a ship in half? Or hit the ammo?

last question: how do they explain this 'preheating' for a torpedo? Overcharge, is that like bundling 100kg TNT to the torpedo and sending it on it way?

Yes it is. But early war torps might just run straight under and not explode. If they work it works, but if you have a dud then you lose a fish that might of exploded on impact.

And duds are funny in this game... Most of the time My duds leave the tubes and head straight for the bottom.

Had that happen 4 times in my last patrol. LOL.

Seems like 'preheating' torpedoes only really have to do with electric torpedoes, which rely on batteries for propulsion. With the batteries taken out of the torpedo every few hours and heated to 30 deg Celcius for optimal performance.

I would think that this 'preheating' ability is having no effect on regular torpedoes.

Assign Promo points to the chef and the Bosun, and have a meal with the chef, and a Propaganda with the Bosun, make sure you selected Happy MEAL and PROP for chef and BOSUN at game start.

MORALE points for active duties of the Pornographist TorpMan trigger Preheat and Overcharge.

You should see that the Torp now have abut 4-5 Morale points.

I think 2 go to the Preheat and 2 go to the Overcharge.

Anyway,
I hate the game. I resorted to SH4.

I'm all YANKEE :woot::woot::woot::woot::woot::up::up::up:

NO THEY DO, HE PREHEATS THE TORP both steam and G7e(s), but the mech is specific for electric.

So you are partly right :salute:
