Type IID, Fuel and torpedo capacity?? are these bugs?

[Delayed_Revelations]

Starting with the torpedoes, the description of the type IID specifically states an increase in torpedo capacity. However in the list of specifications its torpedo capacity is 5, the same as Type IIA. And upon puchasing the vessel i can confirm its capacity is 5. So is their meant to be more, or is the type IIA meant to have less?

Also, fuel!!!, the range is supposed to increase almost 5 times over, however the range is still the same, not really enough to get to liverpool and back. I was aware this was a bug and was meant to have been fixed but i assume it hasnt been totally fixed yet? as i measured the distance of my last voyage where i had to switch between electric and diesal to actually complete the voyage, and my distance travelled was around 2000 kilometers, well below what it should be.

Are these both bugs i should be reporting?

I believe the D was lengthened very slightly and was given extra fuel capacity which extended its range. Re torpedoes, they all only had three tubes plus two reloads, so give is it. That won’t change, I’d say..

They had the same number of torpedoes, but regarding fuel, there was just a patch for this (Preview 6). Make sure that you have it and if you do, it may be necessary to change boats or start a new game for this change to take effect.

Can you change the description for Type IID on the next patch then? When you read "has a larger torpedo capacity, enhancing its effectiveness in attacking enemy ships." But then you find out it has the same number of torpedo, it's really disappointing. It list the number of torpedoes properly in the list but the description doesn't match.

BTW how do i unlock a new submarine? Cannot find any information in notes or the game

You get blueprint (blue icon reward) for some missions, like sinking 50000 tons. Then buy from the warehouse guy.

If you buy a new sub do you get to keep and use the old one?

I think it cost 2000 to go back to Type IIA from Type IID. I think your inventory transfer from one sub to another but it takes time, crew transfer instantly. This isn't well made to change from 1 sub to another and back, why would you though.

The in-game description of the Type IID still lists it has having a shorter range than the Type IIA on Preview 9, also, shouldn't the IID also have bigger and "fatter" saddle tanks?
That was one of its main features and the current model uses the same design as the IIA.

It was stated in the patch notes that the update of the description will propagade through different translations for the next few updates. Perhaps youre on a language where the message was not updated yet.

No? You're assuming i play on a different localization, i play on English which has always been the game's main language even within the files, so it looks like they forgot or overlooked that description to me.
