Description

Calculate torpedo travel time for a given speed and distance. Outputted value is a raw number of seconds, without any formatting or units. It can be used as a direct input for other templates or parser functions.
For realistic battles it's calculated using the real torpedo speed, for arcade battles it's using speed multiplier introduced in Update "Red Skies":

Torpedo speed multiplier in AB: Up to 4 km the multiplier is 3; From 4 to 8 km multiplier drops linearly from 3 to 1; Over 8 km the multiplier is 1.

Parameters

• distance - Distance travelled by the torpedo in kilometers. Default: 10
• speed - Torpedo speed as indicated in the game interface in kilometers per hour (km/h). Default: 91
• mode - One of: AB or Arcade, alternatively RB or Realistic, case-sensitive. Default: RB
• round - To how many decimal places should output be rounded. Default: 0 means that 332.67326733 will be rounded to 333. Non-default shouldn't be used for any times that go in minutes.

Examples of use

S.I. 250/533,4X7,5 Tipo A (533 mm) time to reach maximum range in Realistic battles: 189 s {{TorpedoTravelTime|distance=4|speed=76}} s

Type 93 Model 1, Mod 2 (610 mm) travel time for a typical spawn-to-spawn range (12 km) in Arcade battles: 527 s (≈9 minutes) {{TorpedoTravelTime|mode=AB|distance=12|speed=91}} s (≈{{#expr:{{TorpedoTravelTime|mode=AB|distance=12|speed=91}}/60 round 0}} minutes)

G7a (533 mm) travel time with and without torpedo mode compared at 4 kilometers: Without torpedo mode: 59 s; With torpedo mode: 86 s Without torpedo mode: {{TorpedoTravelTime|mode=AB|distance=4|speed=81}} s; With torpedo mode: {{TorpedoTravelTime|mode=AB|distance=4|speed=56}} s
