Hi,
started to play Silent Hunter 5. Because of my limited experience, I wanted to start a game with almost everything turned on in the realism check boxes instead manual torpedo solution and map upates. Anyway, it seems that no matter what I try, the torpedo solution is not a solution... The torpedo is fired always in the exact direction in which I am looking. Is that a bug? Is that known? Is that intention and I just don't get it? What is supppsed to happen when not having the check box selected? I thought I then can look at a target, press space to select it and then look where ever I want and press shoot! Right now I will miss every ship because I kust shoot in the direction I am looking at. And if the ship is moving.... Well...

Help appreciated.
