Hey Guys,
I just bought Dangerous Waters because of the steam sale, looked up some nice tutorials and im on my first Mission yet. I did the TMA stuff and so on and im now Ready to fire, however I select Sierra 2 at the fire Station and click on my Torpedo tube but it doesnt work if I do snapshots or visual contacts it works but not the Sierra ones, what am i doing wrong?
Greetings Spuky05

Have you tried to classify the target as hostile?

Once the target turns red, you should be good to go. Its also a good idea to check the torp settings prior to launch.

No I actually didn’t classify it, how do I do that?

Glad to hear you've gotten the game up and running and are doing stuff! It takes some time and effort to get to that point.

I actually don't know that a track has to be hostile to shoot a torpedo at it. However, I know for certain that it can't be a contact of "unknown" type, it has to be a "surface" or "subsurface" contact. You can do this by right-clicking the contact on the Nav Map (F5 screen) and you'll be able to designate side or alliance (forget what they call it precisely), type, and classify the contact.

Ok thank you I didn’t know that, and your YT tutorials were a good help to start
