Default [HELP] I Can't Adjust Torpedo Speed

If I click the switch to adjust torpedo speed, it won't budge; seems like it's stuck or something. Other switches/buttons are working fine though.

Is there any remedy for this?

Here's a list of mods currently enabled in my game:

Is this happening will all your torpedoes, no matter which tube you select?

I only ask because it took me a while to realize that my standard loadout included different kinds of eels, and not all of them will run at every speed.

Altho now that I think about it, seems like they would all run on at least two speed settings; but I could be wrong.

If they're all stuck, I got nothin' - the mods you're using that I've also used have never caused me any problems with the TDC switches. I'd suggest looking first at anything that mods your GUI though. If all else fails try disabling one mod at a time and reloading the game to see if the problem disappears and you'll most likely have found the culprit.

What type of torpedo is currently loaded into the tube you're trying to fire? Only the steam-powered torpedoes have multiple speed settings; if an electric torpedo is in the tube, the speed setting won't change from "slow."

Subnuts is correct. T1=3 speeds T2=1 speed.

I also frequently gets times when it won't change speeds. I either pound on the mouse for a bit, or change screens and come back, usually works then. But I'm guessing the above replies are more accurate....

Well, I guess that explains it. I only have electric-powered torps in my sub.

Gracias everyone for the inputs. Greatly appreciated.
