Sinking Issue

SilentSnake · 08-12-12, 05:31 AM

Hi Guys,

Gone back to silent hunter 5 now theirs a lot of mods and updates and I think the modders have done an amazing job, well done guys!!!

The only issue that really bothers me at the moment is that my torpedoes do not seem powerful enough, two torpedoes are just not sinking ships like they should. For example I hit a 4000 tonne British island freighter with two torpedoes that impacted on its stern, lucky for me one took the propeller off and the other made a huge hole in the rear of the vessel. Now I waited for 7 hours ( game time ) to see if it would sink but I had to finish it off with the deck gun. This happens almost every time. I have also torpedoed vessels at different parts of the hull and at different depths to no avail. Now this is all good and dandy in 1939 but once the convoys start getting escorted properly its going to be a big problem. I don't know if its something to do with the torpedo overcharge ability why they don't do so much damage at the moment ( as i have no upgrades on it ) but I think its pretty unrealistic. At the moment it would be impossible to sink a ship with one torpedo. Below is my mod list and if anyone's interested, this layout gives me no CTD's at all.
