I hope you guys aren't sick to death of the old questions but I'm encountering a few differences from my memory...

1) My torpedoes are blowing up shortly after leaving the boat... this didn't happen very often before but now it's happening 50% of the time... Is this because of duds or are my torpedoes running to shallow?

2) Ok I promise I'll learn radars and sonar’s as well as manual targeting but until I get reacquainted I can't seem to get a hit with all the firing aids... I lock up a ship, open the tubes, fire, and they are WAY off... I hit the "set" button on the left pull out window, it automatically gives me the ship name, speed, and bearing... but my fish go much further in front of my target... is this because an update compensated for opening the tube? Does the lock no longer automatically incorporate the values in the TDC?

That's it for now... It's nice to be back... Things seem a lot more polished in the stock game... Something very therapeutic about Silent Hunter...
