Default How to fire torpedoes with FOTRS mod

I installed the mod and everything seems to work but I tried a EZ torpedo tutorial and torpedoes just dont fire anymore. The button makes a clicking sound but nothing happens.

Was a step added? I even tried realism ZERO and it still wont fire a torpedo.

Any suggestions?

Torps... will NOT fire... UNLESS, you open the torp tube doors.. (Q) button.

Just as in real life....

Yeah, my bad, too much UBOAT.

Only issue I have now is the camera options seem to be limited with this mod, I cant cycle through units, other than that I think I got it working!

In the office... before you go on patrol... click on the radio, (located to the left of the desk) that is the options selector for careers... setting options from the main menu, will NOT do it for you.

If you want the option to be able to free view other units, besides your own sub... you have to select it in the office options settings (aka Radio) there.

Hope this helps...

It appears as if you are conducting 101-Level Silent Hunter 4 Class, here.

Yeah... but, if it is about a topic in regards to it.. that I'm not familiar with or not entirely sure on answering... I shall step away from the podium & allow another who's knowledgeable step up to it... *nod*

I'd rather they be taught right than wrong... you know.

My prob is.. I have too much of a serious side to Me & take things literally... I do try & have a humorous side to Me, but.. oft times, it crops up at the wrong time. :/

This has happened to me. Even without mods, sometimes forget to open the torp doors.
