[REL] Webster's Improved US Torpedo for v1.4 and v1.5

Webster's Improved US Torpedo for v1.4 and v1.5
===============================================
===============================================

This mod will boost the hit power of all american torpedos for the stock v1.5 game.

This mod works for both v1.4 and v1.5 of the game, if any conflicts show up with other mods then just install this mod last and overwrite any files.

I made 3 versions for you to choose from. i took each torpedo and then boosted its hit power to a set percentage increase over stock.

all torpedos still have unique individual differences that make them result in different damage levels but overall as a group they were increased an equal percentage amount in each version.


You have three versions to choose from:

"Webster's Improved US Torpedo v1" - (25% increased power)

"Webster's Improved US Torpedo v2" - (35% increased power)

"Webster's Improved US Torpedo v3" - (50% increased power)

================================================== ================

NOTE: i have also included a JSGME ready "US Torpedo Test Mission" that will install a single mission torpedo test mission so you can use it to try out the different torpedo versions on stationary targets of almost all of the enemy ships. this way you will see exactly how the torps act on each class of ship and how many it takes to sink them.

Do NOT save or modify the test mission or it will have issues, i had to manually change some cfg dates to make all the ships appear together at the same time.

if you just want to know what the new torpedos can do, then look at the list below for the average number of torps i found you needed to sink stationary warships. the test was done with the stock game and no other mods installed and i was using the auto targeting lock in a balao class sub loaded with only mark 14 torpedos.

NOTE - sinking rates will change if you place your hits at key points by manually targetting ships but i used auto targetting.
