I can see shapes at either end of the boat, but can't lock on to anything.

Did I mention this is just a few hours before Hiroshima and the safety of Tokyo Bay is only hours away? Time is very short, so i don't want to sling torpedoes around willy-nilly; the emperor is quite welcome to keep his small-tonnage freighters for all I care, but the large ones belong to me.



Any suggestions?

keep closing until you can lock onto a target. yes, it IS frustrating but there is no secret method. use your full sensor suite to get in close enough to fire. sometimes, you need to run at decks-awash with crew on the bridge to be able to target surface ships during a storm. be ready to sight, lock, fire, and dive...all within a very few moments.yes, you must be somewhat intrepidacious and well trained to accomplish this.

good luck captain.
