If you want all of your spread shots to hit the target ship, you need to find out how wide your target ship is in your periscope. Set your scope crosshair on the edge of the stern of the ship and remember the degree bearing shown (lets use 345 degrees as an example) then quickly move your scope crosshair to the very tip of the bow of the ship and notate that bearing (let's say it's 353 degrees)
There, now since 353 - 345 = 8, you should set your torpedo spread less than 8 degrees to ensure they all hit.
