Dogfish40: I do not use any mods.

Webster: Nm, km? When I use the map (with the 'm'-button) and then measure the distance with the ruler-tool, does that give me the distance in natuical miles? Because, that would make sense. I just thought it was in meters. Maybe there's my problem. :-) How do I convert nautical miles to meters?
Also, if the max range on the torpedoes is about 12km on slow speed, how is 4, 5 and 6km long range? Also note, that most of the time I hit perfectly spot on, even at greater ranges than at some of the times where my torpedoes 'sink'.

EDIT: Also, I should state that I recently started over my campaign and haven't had any torpedoes sink yet. :-)
