Tube door malfunctions, and depth control in bad weather

Kptlt. Siegmann · 05-07-07, 03:29 PM

If you pull up your TDC screen, right next to the torpedo tube selector there is a small dial with two options, one is single and the other is salvo. Switch it to salvo and select from the various salvo selections on the dial. Now, what ever tubes you have selected for the salvo, they will all open and flood at the same time when you press "Q." Launch between each torpedo in a salvo is about 3 seconds. Be sure to change the salvo spread angle accordingly before firing, more than once I've had a salvo of 2 torps split a juicy freighter due to an incorrect slavo spread

If you right-click on the torpedo officer, you will see a box with green lights on the bulkhead, it shows you position of tube doors and has switches. Flip the switches and each door will open. Same thing on the conning tower.

Yes, heavy seas are annoying. The best way of avoiding getting waves over your head is put your boat in dry dock. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

To make it easy for one shot sequential firing just hit Y to select the next tube, this closes the tube you just used then hit Q to open the newly selected one but make sure you wait 3-4 secs before hitting fire. If you want to close a tube manually just hit W.
