Default Onealex torpedo depth.

Hi there i started playing this again and i can't help but the torpedoes in this are very annoying when you set a depth for your torpedoes they don't go to that depth they instead go to 40m i don't know why this does this hope someone can help me.

Thank you.
Kongo.

Onealex mod includes the .hsie realism features which includes a torpedo solution/equation you need to do depending on the wind speed.


There's a hsie.ini file in your main sh3 folder that you can edit the failure rate of the realism feature

The "fix" fixes the historical performance of the torpedo, but from a player's perspective, it breaks them... lol - The U-Boats were "Wolves Without Teeth" for a time, while the BdU tried to determine why their torpedoes were running deep and / or not detonating. Very similar to the US issue with their Mark 14 torpedoes...

Click on the title link on that page, and it will open a pdf the fellow wrote.
