More Realistic Torpedoes [B128]

***This mod is NOT compatible with B129, which has several new torpedo features. This mod continues to work for B128. I will try to make a compatible version for B129.***

This mod implements historical specifications and descriptions for your U-boat's torpedoes.

Historically, the T1 and T2 both used the Pi1 detonator, which failed frequently, and the T2 had depth-control problems. To eliminate duds, the game requires warming of all torpedoes every half hour. But in real life, the T1 did not need warming, the T2 was warmed only every 3-5 days, and warming did not reduce the dud rate. Because warming was so infrequent, cannot be applied selectively in the game, and should not affect duds, this mod disables it entirely:

• Torpedo warming is disabled and all electric torpedoes have their warmed speed/range.
  
• All torpedoes have a dud risk: 25% for T1, 35% for T2, and 10% for all others.
  
• All torpedoes have the correct weight.
  
• The price of the T1 is doubled (to 1800).
  
• The time to transfer torpedoes (and all other items) from the warehouse is reduced.
  
• The time to load torpedoes into the tube is now 12 mins each with three men.
  
• The T1's top speed setting (44 knots) is disabled (BdU banned it due to engine overload).
  
• The description of each torpedo type now includes range, speed, and other info.

NOT save-game compatible. NOT compatible with Heated Torpedoes, HWA Authentic Torpedoes, Extended War / More Research.

Should be compatible with U-boat Expanded, Living U-boat, and any other mods that do not modify your torpedo specifications or pricing.

For added realism, I highly recommend using this with the TDC Mod.

The goal of the "More Realistic" mod series is to add more realism and difficulty to the game. If you like this mod, feel free to try these others:

More Realistic Decorations
More Realistic Guns
More Realistic Map Mode
No More Heart Attacks
