Second, I tried following the auto targeting tutorial (move to 800 range and perpendicular etc) but couldn't get the 1, 2, 3 circles to appear on the mini map, so setting the firing speed of the torpedo was guesswork.

TIA for tips.
I got so frustrated in trying to sink, or even get a hit, on the tutorial ship that I finally surfaced and sank it with the deck gun.
