I haven't played the stock game for a few years and only GWX in the last few months so I'm not 100% sure. However I did come across this example just a couple of days ago:
Spotted a lone merchant ship.
Range worked out, line of direction worked out and speed using 3'15" method.
Manoeuvred sub into the perfect 90 degree angle, 600m range for attack using the torpedo bearing table.
Just sit and wait...
5 mins before the target hit the correct bearing I raised my periscope for a double check only to find that it was on the correct line of direction but had moved 200m nearer to my sub.
Emergency reverse so I'm not too close for the eels to arm themselves.
So the ship must have zig-zagged at some point. I was fortunate that it was still on the correct path.
I did sink it!
