Torpedo firing ai subs?

Thanks for the quick reply! That's really unfortunate... I guess i will have to purchase SH5 one of these days. Also, I thought I saw something in the Wolves of the Kaiser mod thread for SH4 that they had managed something.

I'll have to re-check that thread.

I'll need to dig back through some old DVD's probably, but I may still have the proto type AI Diving Sub for SH3.

It may dive, but does it ever come back up?

Yes it did.
It travelled surfaced and only dove when an enemy ship was near.

If it had no weapons to attack with? It would avoid contact.
If discovered? It tried to evade the Hunters.

Wow! That sounds really neat! Would it be possible to somehow transfer this AI to the various AI subs in GWX? Or do they do this already?

It was an actual project for GWX at one point.
Due to some problems it was shelved as it could not meet time lines.
Any big project has a time line for release. If a test project can not be completed in those time lines?
It gets dropped.
We made the choice to drop that project.
I feel to this day it was the correct choice.

I also feel maybe it's now time to revive the Monster?

Maybe... It would be one step closer to everyone's dreams of having fully functioning AI submarines, and of course, if you can find time to work on it!
