Are you opening your torpedo tube doors before firing?

Just make sure the tubes are open wel before then.

But before shooting always open the external torpedo doors (Q ).This may be the reason your torps are falling behind your target.
Hmm, ya think maybe I should open the doors before I fire the torp?

LOL

That was the problem! Thanks a lot guys!

Based on splashing around in the Baltic Training Area, I think the critical factor is time between Solution and Fire - hence I had consistently been having the torp follow a course that was several seconds off - I had been thinking distance, of the miss, and the problem was really time, between solution and firing.

Go to the TDC, select torp tube/s, select settings, UZO, open the doors, have the WE solve the firing problem and then INSTANTLY press the pretty red button - works great!

Looking forward to tackling the manual process, but currently working on just getting out of the Baltic - which is actually a fun place to experiment with ideas.
