Now, i have had a suspicion for the longest time, but ive never really voiced it. You typically leave out of the aussy ports right? It's long been my suspicion that the functionalty for torpedo failures is somehow being effected by the old "IDL bug". I have no hard evidence of this, its just been my gut feeling. I typically leave out of pearl, and RARELY, next to never, have a dud or premature. The few times i've left out of fremantle however, the malfunction rate was significant and noticeable. Leave out of pearl again, everythings peachy keen for the most part.

yes I do always do the Asiatic Missions in the campaign. Havn;t done a Pearl one since patch 1.1.

But this is the first time in all the patches since that this is happening.

Pre 1.4 patch Asiatic almost no dud's or problems with it activated. Now OMG what a difference.
