Torpedo Load Out Problem

I am using SH3 vanilla, heavily modded. When I went to "sub" and chose the torpedoes I wanted, I then went on patrol. I found that I had been loaded with various types of torpedoes. 1 Type IV, 14 Type III, 2 Type I, and 4 Fat I.

Is there any way that I can "rearrange" the loaded torpedoes. I have tubes 1 & 2 with Type III and Tubes 3 & 4 with Fat I. In reserve I have the first two as Type III and then the next two as Fat I and the last 2 as Type III.

Hope there is a way, I really don't want to start the mission over again.

Rob

Uncheck auto loading
If you have a free space - ie after you have fired one fish - you can drag torps into that empty spot and rearrange them that way using the empty spot after each one moved
May take some time tho

If you go to the torp loading screen in port then go to the barracks\anywhere else then start patrol the loadout will be reset to default AFAIK
Choose torps then run mission is best way to make sure it sticks

Hope that helps some Rob

Thanks bigboywooly

I am currently part way through a mission. So I do not know how to uncheck autoload.

open the torpedo load out sheet (ask the weapon's officer) and there is a box (with a tick) that reads "auto load torpedoes" or something like that. click on it to uncheck it.

Thanks kenijaru

I'll give that a try.

Can I do this submerged?
As I'm in an area where there will be aircraft.

Yeah you should be able to. The only instance where I would think that you couldn't is if you were trying to load an external torpedo.

Just remember to toggle it every time you leave port, and also, remember that you MUST tell the crew to load a torpedo every time you launch one.
