also what do the 1-2-3 #'s mean that are along the line?
thanks again!!  |
Hiya matey,
Where possible I always try to approach at a 90 degree angle to the target, this means I have the best AOB and less chance of missing (though I still do lol) I lock the target, unlock and using the crosshairs on the periscope I aim at the precise location I want the torp to hit. That's all I do and it seems to work more than it doesn't .
Have a look at this thread

It's the tutorial for aiming torpedos and using the TDC , it covers both manual and auto and will probably answer most if not all your questions.
The numbers system is what people here call "joining the dots" basically when your number lines up with the same number coming off the ship you have a sweet shot.
I believe that is also covered in more detail in that thead too.
