I thought my fish were firing slow. I can hear the compressed air shoot when I fire (I already have the door open) and it's several seconds before I hear "Torpedo in the water" and this has always bugged me. As was mentioned by TorpX, I would much rather hear "torpedo running hot, straight and normal" as they all seem to do in the game anyway, Duds or not. Since the game never spits out a torpedo that is erratic we could really use a mod that changes the SO's call out. That would be really great!!

Dogfish, the torp is about 300 yards out when you get the message "Torp in the water", not 500. Also, as someone may have pointed out already, you don't get that message if you have a circle runner. I almost lost my boat last night from the latter, but fortunately I had come to a dead stop before firing to avoid closing the range to tight. The circle runner passed about 25 yards of my bow!
