About the tanker; Ducimus said he made it so convoys zig at intervals. Maybe they were just zigging.

I considered that, running RSRD so no TMO traffic but convoys in RSRD do zig, perhaps was heading to different waypoint. I was curious so using the ME I opened up the traffic, found a convoy I thought the cuplrit then I opened up the convoys of mainly tankers I added(added some c on the Singapore-Japan shipping lane that run up via the parcel islands to convoy college area/bashi channel and to Tokyo etc as they were absent in RSRD.Both of them changed to next waypoint around that time and date, so likely I got unlucky and fired just before they zigged and in the prolonged torpedo run due to having to fire from over 3,000 yards away, torpedoes didnt find their mark before he sped up to maintain station.
