FAT torpedoes have no wakes?

I have reached July 1941 and now have FAT steam torpedoes. I notice they have no wakes?

I'm running TWOS 2.2.25.

Looking at the files, they should have (G7a-FAT1), at least it's defined in their config files and seems to be configured properly. There's another FAT type without trail, G7e-FATII, but these are electric so I assume you're not talking about those.

They are the very first FAT available so must be FAT 1.

Steam ones should be gray with green tips, electric ones yellow with green tips.

Ship wake seems copied from regular T1 steam torpedoes so they should display wake in the same way. Unfortulately I don't have a mission saved with FAT torpedoes equipped so hard to test for myself now. Have you checked if regular steam torpedoes show wake in your game?

These have gold noses as I recall. I'll take a screen shot next time I'm in the game.
