Locking the torpedoes to zero GA is enough, in my opinion.

got mixed up I meant the TBT since they didn't have one.
as for the torpedoes I am still looking for intel as to how much they could set the gyro to, I know the later mark III computer could go as far as 70 degrees, still looking up the mark I computer..
I plan on replacing the mk23 with the Mark IV british torpedo too to be available at the start of the war.
