It DOES toss TDC calcs a bit. But if you do actual math to figure out each shot it's easy to adjust for a 20% speed increase over the given 46knts on most of the torps.

For me, I just jot down the Range and Speed of the target when at 90* off bow and mark which angle left or right I have to adjust the torp. Have to start that chart over again now that I have started a full career.

Easy to test for. Mod the value from the stock percentage to something wild. Torps at 2000% increase move faster than the F11 view when holding shift. Sub with 2000% increase moves at the exact same top speed, so I wonder if that crew quality works at all. I guess I *COULD* try setting it to 20,000 just to be even sillier.

BTW, 2000% numbers are really not playable, just for giggles. Torp speed makes no difference anyway if you can't calc the right shot setting, and stock-ish speeds are much more forgiving in that department.
