Can anybody clarify the FaT torpedo for me?

On the TDC screen, there is a RANGE setting.

When you have a FaT torpedo in a tube, there is a green FaT button which, if clicked, reveals other settings, one of which is STRAIGHT RUN setting.

I've done searches thru this forum, and I have not found out how RANGE and STRAIGHT RUN impact a FaT torpedo.

Does one even bother with RANGE if STRAIGHT RUN is available?

I've tried playing with the settings, and I don't understand how RANGE impacts the torpedo's planned track, in words.

Can anybody explain what is the difference between RANGE and STRAIGHT RUN for the FaT torpedo?
