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!
LOL!!! I know the feeling, Ive done this myself several times. The NAUTILUS mod does that, nuclear warheads. To start with IXB its quite simple. Select to start the carrer in 1940, in second flotilla. There you go, a nice IXB ready for sail. Theres no how to set nuclear warheads ONLY for IXB. There will be for all uboats. But if you are beyond 1500 meters when it explodes, nothing will happen to you, only to all ships in 1500 meters vicinity.
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.
The weapon officer was in his position? This is a weapon officer command, so if he's sleeping, nothing will happen. IF he was in his station, then you must havent installed the folders MENU & CFG that comes with the mod. Check those folders. They must be enabled as the last mod, if they are overwritten by another mod, it wont work.
