That was the whole point of my original suggestions on how to adapt fast-90 to SH4 (or using the TDC without turning on the PK). It's to calculate the appropriate gyro angle, which would be very close to zero if on a 90° track and generally setting up your solution for a 15-20° bearing to target aiming point.

My original suggestions on how to do it are documented here:

Elsewhere within that "Attack Tactics" thread you'll find a table with angles for different torpedo/target speeds (I think RR even posted it to this thread). This would allow you to never even mess with the TDC; just shoot fish straight out the bow on a 0° track. Essentially, I like to use the TDC to determine the aiming point rather than refer to a table, but either method works.
