@Rockin Robbins,

I think your misinterpeting what he is saying, or I'm misreadin it. Now, I'll be up front, I don't know a lot about subs but I'm learning because of this game, but that aside. Do the doors close after they have been opened? Or do they stay open? I thought they stayed open which I think is what he is saying: if he doesn't shoot soon after opening, he gets a delay, same as if he didn't open them first. Not that he gets a delay if he shoot before 15 seconds, but if he opens them ,then doesn't shoot, he gets a delay like they are closing again. I actually have that happen on tube #3, for some reason, but I am aware of it and make compensations for it. It delays even though it's open, it's not a long delay but it isn't like the rest of the tubes for some reason, I'm not a modder or programmer but I would think they all use the same "coded routine" for fireing, but it happens. Don't know why.
Now obviously they have to close again after the shot, otherwise you couldn't load the tube, see I'm really not a complete idiot:rotfl:. Like my father used to say "I'm not fast, I'm not slow, I'm just kinda half-fast".

A little story to lighten things up a bit:
I missed my chance yesterday, but only due to circumstances. Chased down quite a few of the modern liners, big tonnage for a merchanta and used up quite a few torps. Then ran smack into a task force, they were headin due south, I was heading due north. I was right in the middle of the biggest convoy I'm ever run into and had three fish in the front, four in the back. Took out the fleet carrier with the front three. I decided not to turn because the DDs were gathering where I "was" so I would have turned right into them, so ahead flank and try to get under one of the BBs (there were 3) and I did but he was almost gone by, so I turned to get the stern tubes on him and shot at a terrible angle, knew I shouldn't but being half-fast, I did and missed all four shots. Quickly got my depth to 250 and 1 knot. All the time saying 90 degrees, 90 degrees, dummy 90 degrees. I should have waited for the next carrier in line. Another lesson learned!! (the hard way)
