Is this normal (ship damage)
 
I fired 7 torpedos at this one, all hit.
But it seems to still function and just kept going :-?

Use the sinking mods, they make ships sink by flooding instead of hitpoints.

But I see many mods, can someone guide me to what i need?
And also if some is a must :D

A couple observations
 
It looks like multiple torpedoes hit in just about the same spot. In order to get seven torpedoes worth of damage you have to hit 7 separate locations. The way damage is modeled you get almost no bonus for a second hit in the same place.

Also, this boat looks like it's going down. If you waited, I'll bet it sank. Not all boats will go up in a nice photographic explosion and obligingly dive for Davey Jones' Locker in a couple of minutes. I have ships that take an hour to sink all the time. With experience you learn what fatal looks like....most of the time.

If you load Realistic Sinkin Mechanics Lite or Classic, you will have to learn to wait even longer to see what your ships will do. But they will reward you by sinking in so many different realistic ways that you'll stick around far too long to witness their ultimate fate! Although ships may take even longer to sink, you'll be too interested to compain.:up:
