External stores?

I think you missed my point. They should NOT be able to load them in any weather. Pure speculation on my part but I belive they have to open large hatches on the deck surface to get the fish below deck.

I wouldent think its a good thing to have large openings in your deck in bad weather.

Yep bad weather loading would be very dangerous.If we had external torp moving animations with the crew,I'd like to see them doing that in a storm like in Das Boot for example...that would be extremely hard to do and many people would probably be hurt and the torp could fall or hit the walls and ...well let's not think about that
Also saw somewhere on the forum that electric torps couldn't be used as ext reserves because they required maintenance very often.

Firstly sorry it's taken so long to get back to the thread i started, now then thanks for the help, i tried draging them into position that didn't work and i tried through the wep's officer and that didn't work either, i was wondering weather it was because of the sea condition because i sure as hell would not open the hatches in that sea (mid-atlantic) ill have a look at the realisem settings..Thanks again folks

When you are surfaced the external torps should be bright in colour - they are shaded grey when underwater
Drag them to an empty internal slot
If you hold you mouse over the torp after it will give you a message such as not enough crew or in queue or time to reload ***
If the first obviously put more crew in the torp room - qualifications help
If the second message make sure the crew arent loading a torp already or more importantly you are not in silent running
If you are in really rough seas sometimes the boat will go under deepish and then torp reloads will stop and reset so you will have to drag them again

Just my observations

You probably already know this buta make sure your not stuck in silent running mode too. Crew wont even take a dump in Silent mode
