couldn't you just add two tubes in the .sim ? then link them to two new doors ?

Why would I want to add something that is already there? I had four stern tubes already there and the Sen toku doesn't have any stern tubes, so I moved them forward and deleted the other two.
I was thinking of something else when I commented about checking the "parent ID'.. my mistake. If you go to the tube in wpn_subtorpsystem (or something like that) and select the tube, it will tell you the name of the door that it is connected to. And use that info to move the door to the front and turn it around. I had something else on my mind where I checked for the link by parent ID so I got a bit mixed up. I was going to correct that answer yesterday but we lost power with a big storm that came through and just got power back about an hour ago.

Now, a question for you:
If you check your Jyunsen B, the tubes are all linked to the XVIII doors not the Dmy Torp tubes. The Gato didn't have any dummy torp tubes, so I assume they are just so when the door is open it shows a tube and not an empty hole?
