- Like what is seeker range?
Seeker range is range at which the weapon will detect the target. Usually you fire the weapon from much larger distance. Torpedoes range is around 1000 yard (IIRC, also it depends on many things) .. so you have to get your torpedo at least that close to the target, so it can start homing on its own.

If I am atacking sub with ADCAP and target starts changhing depth will do so ADCAP whne he gets lock on sub or target will be safe by changihng his own depth.
If the torpedo is locked, it will follow the target if it changes depth. Even if the target is changing depth before the torpedo locks on, it usually cannot change depth enough to get out of seeker cone. Also thermal layer has no effect on short distances at which the seeker locks on.

Is there a way to find out another subs depth??
Most of the time no. And most of the time, there is also no need. While subs can change depth, all the problem is basically just 2D. Sub can go 1000m down .. the best ones .. but that is nothing compared to horizontal distances. Also the torpedo at medium depth will pick up enemy sub at any depth.
