it's supposed to be the ENTER key, but in the naval Academy it didn't work. is that normal, and will that key work as intended in my career?

If you're running GWX, it's been changed to prevent accidental launches.

I think it's shift + enter, or ctrl + enter.

Try those.

Control - Enter for GWX.. BEST INVENTION EVA!!!!

Yah, Cntrl-Enter.

You'll find that if it was just the Enter key like before, you'll accidently launch (and waste) torpedos, especially if you use the external cam! To move quickly with the external cam, you'll hold down the Shift key. I can't tell you how many times I accidently brushed the Enter key and heard the Torp launch sound with my XO yelling "Torpedo in the water!"

cntrl enter is to stop bernard from pressing the fire button which he calls it the big red shiny button.

With Cavaliers setkey you can easily assign any key or combination of keys to the FireTorp command.
