Default Torpedo Effects on already flooding compatments.

When the second torpedo detonates in/on a compartment already partly flooded, you previously noted there may be catastrophic structural dame (or not).

However the shockwave would be transmitted to the adjacent bulkheads and would be almost guarrteed to at least spring them - )probably causing them to buckle or even collapse). Either way there would be significant flooding in adjacent compartments.

There is therefore a sound argument for having additional hits in the same spot causing flooding in adjacent compartments, regardless of the damage radius of the torpedo.

Whether this is possible to model in the game I do not know!

I have found the NYGM to be the most enjoyable (and as a U-Boat Kpt - frustrating!) DM. Sometimes I long for the days of insta-BOOM!

Now should I fire my last torp. at that cripple or go for another small one!

Thanks again for a great mod.
