Default new to sh5

Can anyone please help and try to give me an easy method of how to sink a ship with torps. I continue to fire but the torp always trails to the stern of the target.On playing sh4 it seems to work out all the solutions for you but not in sh5 case.If anyone can give me a simple run down on how to correctly fire and hit a target I would be so grateful..I am a newbie although have been playing sh for a couple of years and just cant seem to get my head around the workings of sh5

Do you use manual targeting or "connect the dots" ?
