Submarine torpedo run timer

[pkick]

Is there an estimated torpedo run timer? Would be e benefit to know my shot "missed" so I can exit the battle and continue with the campaign.

Sadly there isn't an inbuilt timer but you can work out a rough time-to-impact using the speed of the torpedo and the distance to the target. Time = Distance/speed. US Torps run at about 13.5m/s and Japanese Torps at about 25 m/s. So a target at 3000m would be struck about 220s after launch from a US Torp, or 120 seconds after launch from a Japanese torp.

it would be nice to see a stopwatch as you see in silent hunter or service

Thanks. Spoiled by my Navy days with our computers. No stop watch required. :-)

Stopwatch would be cool. I asked the missus for one for my Birthday but sadly the request was declined!

Yeah I'd like it too for subs, show it when looking through the persicole view.

all they need to do is toggle [friendly] torps to be shown on the mini map like they have in their cold waters game

No, a better idea would be at add a cronometer. Like were actually used in real life to estimate torpedo run times.
