The indicator is however correct.
It seems not logical, but that's how it worked afaik.

I stand corrected! I was just looking at that very drawing. The dial reflects impact angle (α), which indeed is the complementary angle of what I was saying before. Interesting they designed it that way. But when considered in the context of the torpedo triangle it makes sense. Thanks for clearing up!
