Ah, so is this the reason why my torpedo attacks nearly always fail? I have set up numerous attacks on freighters sailing at 6 knots, had a good firing angle, good AoB, etc., yet WAY more often than not the torpedoes mysteriously miss time and time again (with the Mark 10 torpedoes). I've never really had a problem with manual firing solutions in SH3, so suffice it to say it's been quite frustrating seeing so many of my shots go astray in SH4.

I'm going to have to look into this fix and install it, until (hopefully) the devs fix the problem. Speaking of which, they are aware of this problem, correct?
