According to the TWoS tips (for the moment I'm not going to risk my own opinion here - see above):

"Aim for engine room! Engine room on most merchants/warships is located slightly behind ships superstructure".

In Auto TDC this is a milkrun, but not so in Manual TDC. I'm not that good to make such an adjustment yet, if so it must be done at the last moment I guess, but I'm happy to deduce from it that torpedos can make more or less damages, and probably the nr. of torps to sink a ship will vary because of it. That's realism.

For you Spraki, and lovers of technical stuff: It's worth to read the SH3 WAC5 documentation about scenarios, or the SH3 GWX3 500+ pages manual. It contains most of the details you ask in your thread, plus a lot of historical background. Then there a lot of docs in the TWoS mod itself, located in the game folder.
