Possible bug in Fortress Keflavik scenario - 2/19/2008 1:19:39 PM

Status: offline 		Just been playing the above scenario in the GIUK battleset - I sunk the soviet carrier with my surface fleet and managed to infiltrate to the inner ring of the Soviet fleet with my two Oberon Class subs which I had split. I fired my entire arsenal (32 in total) of Mk 24 Tigerfish at the merchants and LSTs - they all missed. Their was no display to show them missing, they just disappeared from view after a couple of minutes. I fired at a range of about 4nm - the hit probability should have been 60%.

Am I missing something or is this a bug???

Status: offline 		I did fire the torpedoes from deep. Would this have had any effect as I was at such close range? Or am I just clutching at straws to try to find an explanation????

Status: offline 		Firing from Deep wouldn't have much effect.  I'm thinking more that the distances ended up being too great for the torps to catch most of the targets.  That said, I haven't tried it out either to get more concrete results.

Status: offline 		I might try the scenario again to see if I can recreate it. Depends how motivated I feel later - no guarantees I'll be able to get my subs in so close again and it might mean a lot of effort in vain!!!

Status: offline 		He who shall not be named has found those torpedoes to work fine.  Looking forward to what you find as well ird but at least someone as has taken a look at it.

Naturally he found another bug (thankfully we had fixed it already)
