if there were accident error for 30m,then,enemy ship's HDG will
not be correct and Speed also too.It causes a incorrect aiming HDG
then the torpedo won't hit!Please give me a advice to plot well.

How many time do you take in-between plots? The trick is to make multiple plots over a longer period, instead of just two over a short time. Time averages all errors out of the window. Take your time and follow it from a distance for a while. Once you have a handful of plots then you should be able to draw a line through them. Some may be a bit beside it, but most will conform to the direction of the target. For example, make 5 plots (start plus 4) with 3m15s intervals. That takes you 13 minutes. The 3m15s interval is because the distance between point in 100m units works out to be the speed in knots. After the 13 minutes you take the total distance between 1st and last plot and divide by 4, i.e. 3.2km divided by 4 plots is 8 knots. Guaranteed to be accurate to 0.25 knots!
Really, then 30 meters isn't going to be an issue. Patience is a virtue, and pays back in tonnage.
