Mod for training torpedoes, and your normal approach procedure...

I tried to create a training mission along the lines of what O'Kane described in his books, where a friendly DD or APD sailed over the horizon to play the part of a "enemy" ship and they made an approach with practice torpedos. Since I don't know how to nerf the torpedos, I figured I would just set them to run under. I would know if my shots were good by watching with the external cam. Seeing where the torps run and how close/far from the target is the most important element here. Anyway, I set up the mission and make the approach. After I launch the torpedos, I am peering through the scope, watching intently, and what do I see? The APD turns like a PT boat, and goes around them.

Oh well, back to the drawing board.
