next I was hunting a "convoy" of one small composite and a modern liner. The modern liner's top speed is 17 but the small composite has 13 knots,, since they are in a convoy my guess is that speed is 13 (oh yeah Benno says moving fast, that's how I know the speed isn't 12 or 6 knots).
I use u-jagd 2 times I get a speed of 14 knots......I am really careful when I start and stop the watch. So I fire two torpedos at around 1100m one barely scratches the front of the ship the other one misses......

Any suggestions or something.....anyone?? :/
It could be a lot of things. What method are you using, and are you able to check it all on the map? Until you get used to it, it's a good idea to have all the contacts visisble on the map with, and "No Map Contact Update" unchecked.

Then you can make sure that the other variables are correct, such as AoB, and range, using the drawing tools, and eliminate those as a sources of error. Use pause if you have to.
