One clarification--in auto targeting you don't actually have to ever lock the target. As long as the crosshairs are on the target the solution is updating. Locking the target in auto targeting does two things; it automatically keeps the periscope/TBT on the target until it is unlocked, and, in 1.5 it automatically sets the depth of whatever torpedo is selected to 3 feet above the keel depth. This can be a problem because if you don't fire that torpedo it's depth can be wrong for a future shot if you or auto targeting doesn't reset it. Again, this feature is in 1.5 only.
