No Dud torpedoes please

pcgameman · 01-31-20, 05:59 AM

Hi,

Greetings from sunny Malta!

I have been playing TWoS v2.2.17 for a couple of weeks and in spite of unticking Dud torpedoes in the realism settings, I still fire torpedoes which are dud.

Only yesterday I fired 6 torpedoes which were all dud and all this to sink one merchant ship - I ended up sinking merchant ship using the deck gun!

Is there anyway to play TWoS v2.2.17 with no dud torpedoes please?

Thanks in advance

How close were you to the ship? Anything 300 meters or less will not detonate.

Weather can send torps under the keel of a ship as well.

You cannot turn off dud torpedoes in TWoS but this might help
One Ship, One Torpedo v1.00 > Enable JSGME

@THEBERBSTER - Why cannot dud torpedoes be turned off completely pls?

Are you using impact fuse? If so, what angle are your torpedoes striking the target ships at? Shallow angles would produce extremely high chance of dud. If you know you have to do a shallow angle shot then try to use magnetic fuse instead. But early war, magnetic fuse is problematic so might not help you out either.
