Also I've added a keystroke (R) for cycling the tubes and changed the 'W' cycle tubes command to be the close selected door command. Also, the doors still close automatically once a torpedo has been fired. All this stuff was sent to me by Fearless but I spent all day tweaking it to see what each part does.

Plus I've added a line to menu.txt and Commands.cfg so that the crew notifies you when a door is being closed.

I messed with the toolbar orders too, but in the end I went back to just having the 'open selected door' as a toolbar button. Since the doors close automatically after firing I figured it was less useful to have the 'close door' order in the toolbar.

This little job has taken me about 8 hours solid work LOL.
As buteobuteo just posted, this has already been made.
