Gentlemen,

I am sure this has been discussed before but I can't seem to find it on the forum: How in blazes does one charge at a convoy in the dark and plot a solution? The manual TDC tutorials I've read state that the boat must be stationary or nearly still to do this.

While we are on the subject, was the das boot depiction of the targetting and firing of the torpedoes accurate?

Cheers

Jeff
