From BigWalleye:
I don't see what you mean here.
How are you defining deflection and lead angles?
If you input the correct Target bearing, range, Aob (i.e. target course), and speed, it calculates the required gyro angle to hit the target, and this is updated in real-time. What else is do you need?

Maybe I've been missing something here. I always understood that you had to establish your own lead, as Robbins describes above. I thought the fish would go where you pointed the 'scope, not ahead of the aim point. Maybe I always misused the TDC. Honestly, I haven't played SH4 in a couple of years. While my love for the Silent Service goes back to RAdm Dykers (and despite my distaste for Nazism!), I pretty much focus on SH3. In SH4, I always used a normal approach and Kentucky windage, often successfully, but I can't claim to have mastered the TDC.
