Good Evening,

In Beta 1877 possible bug in the doctrine, ASW;
Torpedo Range options are:
- Inherent, No
- Manual Fire Only
- No

From remembering there were two doctrine settings, one for Torpedo Range: Max and optimal and one for manual and auto firing. Different wording.

If I remember incorrect Apologize for time wasted.

best regards GJ

The "Inherited" option always appears when the object in question inherits this setting from a higher level (e.g. mission inherits setting from side). This looks to be WAD.

Good Morning,

Accepting the WAD but wanna be complete.
From the 156 manual:
MISC:
Kinematic Range: If enabled, the unit will fire torpedoes to its kinematic (maximum physical) range. The much
shorter “practical range” is there to ensure that the target cannot avoid the torpedo simply by running at flank
speed in the opposite direction. Kinematic range can be set for always practical, always kinematic, or kinematic
for manual shots. The kinematic for manual setting means a submarine set on a patrol mission running into
warships will engage at a practical range, but if the player sees a slow merchant ship with no sonar, they can
engage it from a distance with a manual allocation.

Snapshot of the naming in Doctrine: the game option for Torpedo Range.
Game states Auto&Manual, Manual and No. The Manual states Kinematic or Practical (which feels more like the range) best Regards GJ
