Default The list of issues

There might be a few issues in the game that confuse things further:

- Some of the ships in stock SH4 have the wrong measures, including an incorrect draft
- Time plays a part. In real life, all Mk14 issues were fixed by 1944. Testing before that date probably causes the game to simulate the real life bugs with the contact detonator and the depth measurement device in the torpedo (up to okt 1942 Mk14s ran upto 15 ft too deep because of a calibration issue)
- There is a claim (which triggered a lot of testing) that the switch in SH4 is actually reversed. So you think you select "Contact Influence", but the game setting is actually "Contact".

So, any testing needs to be conducted in 1944, with ship measures adjusted (or selected a ship that is unaffected). I'm not saying that that wasn't done up to now. I am merely offering some advice to anyone who wants to test this further.
