Sending a final bearing right before shooting is important, even with PK on...fire 1, send new bearing, fire 2, send bearing..and so on. Thus are firing shots as individually torpedo shots, not a salvo. This works best in most cases, close range etc. For typical freighter worth three torpedoes, like to aim one a center, usually under stack, one on forward mast, last on aft mast. Nice, spread. Longer ranges, the spread knob on TDC, for small vessels one degree of spread, most merchants two degrees seems to get it. Larger warships...2.5-3 degrees typically works.
