OKAY! thanks you guys! You are all so helpful in here! Really!
I have AOB at 0 and speed at 0 but I wasn't sure if I should mess with range because the torpedo/target point is over 2200 yards away.

@ magic452 : Doesn't the range set some kind of fuse on the torp? Are they active out of the doors or do they activate based on the inputted range?

@ Frederf: The step I'm missing must be simply turning the periscope! d'oh! I didn't know that the TDC actually used the periscope that way ( I thought everything had to be punched into the TDC ).

@ goin' down: I'm totally comfortable with manual targeting to the point where I'm doing sonar only kills quite successfully. The problem is in my mission I've taken out a large merchant ship and 2 DD's (as per secondary objective) in my porpoise class and have only 4 aft torps left! I'm heading B2B but have just come upon a sole Medium Euro Composite that just called my mother a "cheap wench". You can see and appreciate my predicament!
