How can a dummy figure out how to set a spread on 2 or 3 torps and can you do this useing automatic torp fireing?

When locked on a ship I believe automatic targeting aims at the middle of the ship. A degree of spread moves the impact point left or right about 50 yards for a target 1000 yards away. The effect is linear: i.e. 100 yards for a target 2000 yards away, 25 yards for a target 500 yards away.
So, for example, for a ship 200 yards in length at a range of 1000 yards, if you fire two torps place them at 1 degree left and 1 degree right. They should hit at 50 yards and 150 yards from the stern.
If firing 3 torps on the same ship, place them at 0 degrees, 1 degree left, and 1 degree right. They will hit at 100 yards, 50 yards, and 150 yards from the stern.
