Hello my friends!

I have been away for awhile, I took a break from the game due to having to small of a monitor and getting tired of fighting with the game interface at 1024x768, I now have a better monitor (1280x1024 is much better).

Anyhoo, on to the question!

So I have combed all the tutorials and lessons but I still cannot figure out one simple thing.

When you get into position to launch a fish, you do all that is needed to get into a proper position to catch the merchant (or warship) at a nice juicy 90 degree angle.

Next you determine target speed (and bearing if needed) and lock that into the TDC.

Now if I wanna fire a torp using the "fast 90" method, how do I determine how far ahead to place the periscope wire (and the TDC for that matter) to get the best shot as the ship "crosses the wire"?

I just can't seem to understand the basic formula for that.

Thanks in advance.
