Torpedo jam/malfunction in the tube?

October '39, type IXB, II Flotilla, NW of Ireland - U-123 reports a jammed aft torpedo. The torpedo resides in internal storage, slot 2nd, and refuses to be moved to the tube or to the first slot, many tries without effect. All the other torpedoes smoothly change their places when 'asked to' by dragging and dropping, only this one seems to be jammed. Kaleunus furiosus then orders to switch 'automatic reload' option on and magically the torpedo moves to aft tube No 5. :|

First I thought it's a coded malfunction (SH3 Commander option), but it reloaded after switching the automat. Also the thread about malfunctions doesn't mention jammed torpedoes (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...ammed+torpedo). So - what was the problem?

Config: SH3 + GWX + GWX Dec 23rd patch + SH3 Commander 2.7, malfunctions on.
