Default Adding torpedoes while on cruise

Good evening, help is requested since I am desperate! I just returned unharmed from a patrol, no torpedoes left in my sugarboat and except for massive air raids I had no problems so far on my way home. But now - all of a sudden this huge, massive, incredibly large, I lack words to describe it - cluster of ships appears on my map and it contains four aircraft carriers, lots of battleships, I do not know how many destroyers - but I have no torpedoes left. I mean come on, be realistic, in real life you'd ask the toothfairy and she'd gave you some torpedoes. I do not play for realism but fun, ergo I need my torpedoes stocked up again. I have to attack that combat group. I do not use any mods except for some boat skins and that lesser-aircraft mod. Is it possible to open some saved game file, edit some parameter and get torpedoes by that? I have been modifying crew like that and certainly you can change things like boat speed and so on. I don't want to cheat for all times, but I have to attack this convoi. I just have to. Really, there is no other option. What is to be done?

I do have some sort of deck gun, but I take a quick guess so do the destroyers and battleships. Ramming sounds funny but should result in a quick game end.

Of course it is cheating, no valor, but it is a game and I have an inner drive to attack that thing, what without torpedoes I can not and as I don't know when that sort of opportunity returns - action has to be taken just now. Besides my wife threats me with sex, so please, please, please help me escaping that. I just cannot figure out what exactly to edit in that saved game file.

Cheers!

the game is famous for doing this when you have no torpedos left just do as we all do and mumble quietly to yourself as you let them go and head to port
