Thanks a lot.

Use your periscope to target certain parts of the ship. If your TDC Calculations are accurate, the bearing your are pointing is the information used for targeting.

Torpedo depth is determined by the depth of their hull. Default usually sets the torpedo depth to just below the waterline, which should be fine. If you are using the magnetic trigger, set your depth 1-2 meters below the keel for magnetic detonation.
