Oh, thank the Big Guy Upstairs, 'cause I'm not crazy. I've had the same bug occur... my fish steer to the left of the target. 20 degrees sounds about right. It's happened when I'm based in Manilla, so I don't believe it's a date line problem. I've uninstalled, deleted stray files, rebooted, reinstalled, all to no avail.
I had not noticed the problems under stock 1.2, but that doesn't mean it wasn't there. There were a few times (if I remember correctly) when I fired off a salvo, and they all missed, when it should've been a relatively easy shot ("shotgun" range, ~1000 yards or less, ~90 degree AOB). I've summed it up to a problem with how I operated the TDC, forgetting to update it or something.
I had it happen to me very recently... came across a destroyer and a gunship just outside the port's "mouth". I radioed the contact in, and HQ wanted me to sink 'em. So I tried... broad daylight, ~1000 yards, ~60 AOB port, me at periscope depth @ 2 kts. Torp's were set to fast. Fired off 4 fish (overkill, yes, but the base was close by), and I watched all of them pass to the extreme rear of the target.
