That sounds like the dreaded "circular run". I'm assuming the game includes those because I may have experienced one on the first torpedo I ever fired.
I was in the second sub school training, for AA and deck guns. Since I was in a hurry to get to torpedo shooting I decided to fire a torpedo at the target rather than continue to pund it with my deck gun. I lined up on the surface at a dead stop, and fired one fish from the forward tubes. Several seconds later there was a tremendous explosion and damage reports came pouring in (along with half the ocean) from the rear compartments. When I went to the outside camera there was an enormous hole in the after torpedo room.
Luckily we didn't ship enough water that the damage control teams couldn't stay ahead of it.
All I can say is it was a pretty rough introduction to shooting torpedoes!
