Okay, I found Rockin Robbins' O'Kane video and written guide in the Skippers' Bag of Tricks and have been testing that against a 5kt Large Passenger Liner to mixed results. One torpedo hit where I aimed but second one followed it rather than hitting forward, despite changing the AOB. Then on the next series, the real crazy came out again:
- Plotted the approach from near detection range, updating four times prior to firing. Set up for an 80 degree firing position from 700m on the target's starboard side, opened both torpedo doors, set torpedo depth, speed, and detonation, then waited until the liner was 1000m or less from there, then entered 0 degree range twice, AOB 80 degrees (stb side) twice, and 5kts speed twice, and waited.
- Fired first torpedo at the aft stack as it hit 80 degrees, aligned the periscope to hit the forward kingpost, changed the AOB to 85 degrees, again clicking twice, and fired. i did NOT use the PK or lock on target at any point.
- Both torpedoes ran off 45 degrees behind the target.
This has happened following ThreeDot's tutorial, TheBebster's, and now Rockin Robbins'.
WTH? Could shelling out of the game a couple of times cause this kind of glitching or am I missing something fundamental?
