I can't see my torp indicator if my ship is on fire.

The black smoke obscures the indicator.  What setting do I need to change?  I've already checked/enabled the Reduced fire effect setting but thats not helping.

I think they changed it recently so you can use binoc view with torps, or is that what you're talking about?

[Patton5150]

No.  Zoomed out like normal for torps.  I'll have to find one of the replays where the issue happened so I can take a screenshot.

I've had similar issues.   Worst is when a setting sun is shining on the water and you cannot see the indicator at all...not enough contrast.

[SandraSmiles]

Indeed.

The problem lies in the fact that we can't zoom out far enough from the smoke to see the green torp indicator, much less the white aim assist.

When milliseconds count, we're dancing between life and death since the smoke disables our ability to use torps with any confidence.

oh, I know what you're talking about.

 

It's usually not a problem on a DD, but if you are in a cruiser or Tirpitz, and you are on fire, the lead indicator becomes very hard to see.

That's realistic though.

Having the sun to your back is and should be OP.
