I can't explain the odd results, but here are some of my thoughts.

I would try to do the tests in a simple mission, where you could readily observe the results, and repeat as often as needed. Maybe only vary one element at a time; at least at first.

Another thing, we ordinarily think the game rolls the dice for our torps at launch (or impact) because that is the way we would do it in a game. But, perhaps the game determines duds and malfunctions when we load the torps at base, so that changing files and replaying a save, might have no effect.

About the gyro problems; maybe the TDC itself was acting up? Otherwise, it is hard to fathom your results.
