That must be good for 50m of distance or so. Cheers
Hmm are you opening the tubes before pressing the fire button? If not it will lag your shot by a few seconds (as it takes a few second for the doors to open, and it uses the data from the moment you press the fire button, not when the torpedo is actualy fired).

Otherwise your underestimating the range (ship is further then you calculated) or your speed calculation is wrong (ship is faster then you calculated).
