downloaded sound, no instant death, dials and Nautilus IXN mods. I installed them into GW2 and started a new career.

couldn't start with an IXB, so didn't get Nautilus and ran with a VIIB from 7th Flottilla, with Mark I steamers.

Picked up an ore carrier near Norway, stalked it and fired a torpedo from 1100 metres. Hit the ship and blew it to pieces with bits of deck etc flying over me. What the ....? The sub was rolling almost deck under. As it quietened down, I got the instant death screen - all crew dead!

Abandoned career and went to bed in disgust. Next day I rerstarted the career and fired a topedo at the minesweeper in Wilhelmshaven (just an experiment, you understand, I hadn't changed sides.

Sure enough -one minesweeper in pieces, closely followed by 6 or 7 other ships! Everything in and around the harbour including, of course, my sub.

It seems that the Nautilus mod converts every torpedo into a nuclear warhead.

So I'd better back off the mod until I can get me a IXB.

p.s. I tried CTRL S as soon as my patrol started but nothing happened.
