Torpedo reload bug? Or did I miss something...
Today, I intercepted a convoy. My plan of attack was to dive below the thermal layer, charge in, go to periscope depth abeam of a large passenger ship, fire 6 fish, and dive again to escape the escorts.
All went fine until I fired the fish. I fired on a spread, but a DD lumbered right into the path of the torpedoes and took most of them in the side.
Scratch one DD. Another was astern and I managed to pop off 2 on him and sink him as well.
Now at this point I notice that the torps aren't reloading. I've got plenty to load, they just won't go.
I tried everything I could think of and the clowns just won't load them.
Battlestations off then on again, Silent running on and off, the crew just sat on their hands.
Now I know that being at Battlestations too long will result in your sub coming to a halt with all attempts to set the speed resulting in "Unable to comply", but they were obeying my engine settings so I don't think that was it.
Is there a bug that does this? Or did I screw up and miss something?
