Default Newbie Q: FaT Torpedos

When preparing to fire an FaT torpedo recently, the TDC screen appeared with different dial / control - e.g. 'straight leg length' I think. I must have stumbled across this accidentally because a subsequent FaT torpedo selection didn't cause the TDC to show the same dials. What did I do wrong??

Cheers

Hi TomC:
Notice that when you have a FAT torp loaded, you will see a label that says FAT on top of the tube indicator light. If you press that label, you will be able to use it with it's FAT "qualities" and you will be able to see the dial again. If you click again on the FAT sign and the light goes off, it will be a normal torp again.
Hope this helps
