I've already read it, but thanks anyway.

To flood the torpedo tubes open the torpedo tube vents, drain/fill valves and turn on the compressed air fill button all of the switches are in the torpedo rooms. Also if you haven't make sure to read the description for this boat.

There are 2 torpedo compensating tanks, the forward tank isn't split up into two. They are controlled from the torpedo rooms and not the control room. You can close the valves that allow compressed air to go to the torpedo rooms.

So how do I use the torpedo compensating tanks, I don't see those on the valve tree, and are there actually three of them here as well?

Of course there are some slight inaccuracies with the locations and size of the tanks.

For the tank locations I recommend looking at real blueprints of the type VIIc. They are pretty much where they would be on the real boat. These tanks are designed to be fully filled and you don't really have to worry about using the main ballasts for controlling the buoyancy only the regulating and trim tanks. Also keep in mind that ballast tanks 2 and 4 as well as the regulating bunkers are filled with fuel initially. After the fuel has been used then you can open the kingston valves and use them as normal ballast tanks. The regulating bunkers are filled using the pumps.
The boat does have torpedo compensating tanks they are a bit larger than on the real boat, but still work as expected.

Perhaps you could explain in detail the locations of the five ballast tanks, the forward and aft trim tanks, and the two regulating tanks.
I can understand and know the purpose of each valve by looking at the engineering blueprint, but I can't imagine how I can understand it without knowing anything.

Finally, were the torpedo-related compensating water tanks omitted?
But it was definitely a deep experience., well done !

You can post it on the workshop as well

Yeah you can post it wherever you want, I really don't mind.

Hello. I am planning on using your TDC for a submarine of mine. Will it be ok if I post it for my friends only or just keep it personal?

In the front torpedo room I think it's above the torpedo tubes on the ceiling and in the stern torpedo room it's between the stbd e motor and diesel compressor.

Where are the ready to dive keys in the torpedo rooms?

Oh, man

You either need to use a modded workbench or use the mission editor to spawn it in.
