Stupid Rough Weather!

I remember something similar when in heavy fog. The ship only becomes visible when within 200 meters so you can't fire torps since they won't arm.

I this case, you have to learn to fire based on hydrophone localization. I've tried it a couple of times sine I am no expert. I got one hit but missed the other couple of times but I blame this on real lack of experience.

I lpan to work on it so that when I have my XXI and can fire from 50 meters, I know how to do it.
