Torpedos just spin in circles

sirbum69 · 07-01-13, 09:38 PM

What would cause all my torps to just leave the sub and then start into a circle pattern. I was sitting about 700m from a destroyer that was at all stop, I was almost facing him except he was about 30 degrees off my left side and facing left.

So I put in 35 degrees aob port, 700 range. I fired 4 torps and everyone of them left the sub, went about 10 m and then started doing circles. never once went towards the ship.

on my TAI map the dotted line which is the torps suspected path was pointing right at the ship I wanted to hit, but they never went that path.

Could this be from a mod. I know I have the dark torpedo mod for something, not sure if that is the problem.

sounds like you enabled my torpedo patches using my Generic Patcher but failed to install the modified torpedoes.sim file for the patches

There is a reason why the Files= entry for the patch doesn't say None in the Generic Patcher

Frankly, I'm tired of answering this question several times a day..

People just don't want to read or look inside attentively

So am I

I modified the Generic Patcher app so that it would be easy to find the needed files/notes/pictures for each patch. Simply click the Files=, Notes=, or Pictures= to see what you need. I can't make it any simpler than this

well alright then I wont ask anymore questions. funny though I did a search last night before posting and found nothing on torps going in circles.

as for the patcher, im use to the old one that just did the click to enable true or false, didn't know there was something new to it.

last time I used the damn thing it was .02 SH patcher.

Thanks and have a great day

I wasn't trying to be rude just simply stating the facts

Open each patch node and you'll see entries saying Files=, Notes=, and Pictures= along with the regular nodes. Double clicking those will launch the appropriate app on your computer to view them. That's how I convey the needed information for the patch now

If people fail to read/look then they will have self-induced problems.
