Idk why they used imperial and not metric bu whatever. This basically rules out targeting destroyers with impact detonators.

anyway is this offset is simulated in this mod or isit just fluff?
I do not know if this is true, but I can only tell you my experiences and iam fireing my impact torpedos all in about 2 meters. Deeper they often didnt hit the ships although the draft would have to give this.

So, it seems so that its maybe simulated - they run when setting is about 4 m to deep to hit the targets. If this behavoiur is changing in later war (like in real WWII when the torps got fixed) need to be tested.

Cause of some campaigns transfer problems i started a new career ( U-29 with Hans-Jürgen Hellriegel, ..yes.. U-29 was commanded in the early war years from Otto Schuhart but 29 its the number i recived from KSD and yes, U-29 was a VIIA sub - at least that's the way it fits ). Thanks again for your help THEBERBSTER with fxing my issues!

This new carrer its about 100% realism, means with dud torpedos inclusive, so the topic remains
an exciting when exactly torpedoes strike for me !
