Default Quick Question

Hello there first time post but been hanging around this site for awhile and during my latest campaign I had a question pop into my head. I was wondering if it is possible to load torpedo from the aft torpedo room into the bow torpedo room? It would be nice if I wouldn't have to go back to port all the time after a good patrol or have to try to go backwards at a merchant.

Unfortunately this is not available, Aft tubes reload from Aft bunker and Fore toobs from Fore bunker.

If you want to take a rear shot I generally do my setup as if I were shooting for toobs, then when solution is set turn so you and your target have the same course and (assuming your ahead of them) take the shot from there

Cheers

No, that's fortunate, because it would be impossible to do so at sea, thus totally unrealistic.

Lol I meant Unfortunately in the sense it's not possible.. not in meaning its unfortunate we cannot. I agree it would be extremely unrealistic.. Somehow handling 21'' torpedoes on a submarine deck in the Pacific Seas (probably in the pitch black of night) doesn't sound too appealing..
