Default Slow reloading of torpedos

Hi everyone I'm new to sub sims and was wondering why on quick missions it takes the crew ages to reload the torpedo tubes after they have been fired
Thanks

Default Battle Stations Helps

Having your crew in "Battle Stations" condition speeds up the reload process considerably.

The process to reload torpedoes is an involved process of using hoists lots of manpower and lots of details like setting the gyros, e

the crew will not reload if you are on silent running, it's too noisy.
