Is there are any of the surfaced submarines that fires them?

All surfaced subs fire torpedos, apart from those 3 named above.
This was also part of their tactics, to attack convoys when surfaced.

Uh, a bit late to the party, just discovered the 4.12 today! Anyway, patch installed, testing continues, love it so far, one thing bothers me though - when starting an ordinary, non-dedicated server, I can also see non-flyable planes on the list of the ones to chose from. Obviously, when I click them and choose "fly", the game puts me somewhere on the map, sitting in the middle of "nothing". Not a big deal when you remember exactly which planes are flyable and which are not, but with soooo many of them, I kinda lost the track of it. Thus, the questions are:

a) Is the issue related to 4.12, or maybe there was something wrong with my stock 4.11 backup copy I used to get to the newest version today?

b) is there any easy "edit-with-notepad" way to clean up the multiplayer plane list and put only the flyable ones on it?

You can use the AI planes from external if you fly a "normal" plane first. The changed list is essentially a feature of 4.11.

Please, post the mission where one of the surfaced submarines fire torpedoes.

Looks like all ask subs with the ending _surf(see mission file) can't launch torpedos.
Shuka and TypII are launching torpedoes.
All others dont.

Main bug for me so far is the take off bug...

In a mission i built on the Burma map at Imphal airfield, 3 flights of 4 Blenheims in Line take off formation, bombing supply dumps, of the 12 A/C between 2 to 4 A/C crash just after take off, engine speed drops whilst climbing and plummets into the ground, sometimes they recover, most times they don't. I've tried different skill levels of the pilots from average to veteran, no difference.

Also Paired take off of the escorting Hurricanes sometimes (but much less often) 1 or two will crash into ground or each other.

This is common with most of the A/C i've tried and on different maps.

Also, on occasion i find some fighters whilst in a dogfight will fire at nothing at all.

Thanks for your continuing support of these forgotten aircraft.
