It would be better if there were voices telling you
"Sir running straight(relaxed)"
"Sir, its torpedo is circling ! (panic)"
"Sir, your killing us ! (extreme panic)"

but its nice to have anyway.

The torpedo failure modeling is definitely a step above SH3.

PD

I've not seen this yet (circling torps), but for the amount of fish I've let loose the failure rate seems to be a lot lower than in SH3...I got four duds in a row once on the same ship, but not a single dud in SH4 yet. I started my career in 1942, were the problems sorted by then?

Amusingly the first time it circled,closed,hit then got "Torpedo is a dud".

So i guess that torpedo was VERY broken Friday afternoon torpedo.
