so this does not interfere with range or aob.
does the attack scope have to be at zero with u-boat alignment ?
m.thanks

AOB is updated if you turn the scope. But range isn't. However if it is just turning the scope a little bit to point somewhere else on the hull it is not going to matter (their length is too small to make a difference). But if you wait a long time before firing, the target may be alot closer now so the range will be off. Although range doesn't matter when firing with a gyroangle between 350-010. Outside of that the torpedo needs to turn (alot) more and then the propper (short) range becomes important.
Setting the attackscope to 0 (and then setting AOB to the propper left/right 90 degrees) is only usefull if you got the course of the target from plotting on the map, and have your uboot pointed across the target's path. If you gave the TDC data through the notepad (stadimeter, AOB guess-timation, speed) then it is not needed. Unless you mean turning the scope until the 3 number dial under the notepad is zero. That is the gyro angle that I explained in the above paragraph.
