But thats what i did. I startup up sh4 go into options change the realism options, then i goto start career and choose difficulty level normal and when in the game i discover manual torpedo solutions is off. Why is it off if i changed it in realism settings so its on? I then try to go back into options (during career) to see if i can change the settings but it only lets me change graphics and sound options.

No, the mission is not a suicide mission, you probably were going too fast. It seems the 9-10 knots seems to be the best for fuel consumption. If you set it to flank all the way, you will run out of fuel. Also, make a stop at Midway to fuel up. As you approach Midway you will get a screen that pops up and select "Refit".
ahhh i see brilliant - i'll do that next time

also what i tend to do if an enemy ship or convoy is detected (radio report or contact report) is if its reasonably near me i will sit in the direct general path of the enemy hiding underwater and when it is near - up periscope sort out the torpedo stuff bam fire away!

As i have found that if the ship/convoy is moving away from me it is very difficult to catch it up without it knowing im there.

Best option for airplanes to just go underwater when you get a contact report? One time i decide to engage one and it somehow sinks me...im sure it was a recon plane!
