Hi guys,

I'm currently having a bash at this sim at 37% realism with GWX 3.0 installed.

The way I play is chug along my merry way to my patrol area, and if I get sightings/reports of anything, I take to the deck, wait til I can see him and identify if he's an imminent threat, if so, I dive, if not, I keep chugging away!

However, when i want a bit of fun, I try to intercept a random ship, by continually adjusting my heading til i'm on some sort of 'crash' course with the ship, and try to fire a couple of eels his way while he sails past me on my periscope.

The year is 1939 and I seldom hit anything. I hear my torpedo explodes but nothing.

I've seen the tutorial on getting you're enemy but that seems too complicated. Is there any other way of making sure your torps HIT their target?

Thanks again guys.
