SH3Commander simulates thermal layers, but you don't know at what depth the layer is as it's randomized every time you load SH3 through SH3Cdr.
The torpedo does turn, but I haven't tried anything bigger than running parallel with a column of merchants and shooting torpedoes that need to turn 90 degrees and then hit the target pretty much parallel. My understanding is that doing this can only work if you have very accurate target data, so I haven't tried this after starting to learn manual targeting.

Okthanks for your answers, I just realized that hiding on the bottom isnt working with GWX, after sinking two empire-type freighters and a large cargo as I found a convoy in AN 58 between Hull and Hartlepool. Parked at the bottom, but the three destroyers pings me and finds me anyway. Now as we speak am I trying to sneak out but after beeing pounded with depth charges my aft batteries are destroyed in the stern quarters. But boat is still holding together and the crew have faith in me :-)
About firing torpedos in a bad angle, I suspected it was as you said but am trying to keep as straight run as possible as well as avery low speed, seems like my own speed breaks the calculation as well?
Thermal layers, do you know if it shows that boat is undected by the detection figure, if its used, like boat is green even tho enemies are pinging you?
Edit: Managed to slip away, hull at 96% and promotion was due at returning to home port, Kapitänleutnant is what they call me now and crew was all able to meet their loved ones once again. I think we are going to win this war....
