perfected my convoy attacking....

[gutted]

.. with manual targetting. i can now hit 4 ships nearly everytime. the torps will impact at around the same time. i can actually get more.. if i turn around after the last shot and flip the AOB i can launch the rear tubes at the next row.

well.. atleast until i get to '43 :P

to get an idea of how i did it look at this:

All i do is figure get on a perpindicular course to them.. figure out their speed using the hydrophone (thanks to the guys who made that chart).

put the scope on 0, Set AOB 90, enter their speed.. then turn off the manual entry button. back to the periscope.. slew it over till the gyro reads 0.. then fire as each lead ship crosses your firing point. after the last torp is gone, slew the crosshair back to 0 and wait.

when they cross the 0.. watch the fireworks :P

don't even bother with the range knob with this method.. this works from any range.
