Suddenly close to target - a glitch?

jmcmaster · 09-04-10, 01:09 AM

I'm having a real problem. I'm setting up my approach on a target merchant, adjusting speed and direction, compressing time to hurry things along, stopping compression to check distance. The distance gradually decreases between checks usually by 100 yards or so. Sometime after I pass 3000 yards away, I suddenly find myself 20 to 40 yards from the target, making a torpedo hit impossible. What's going on? Is this a glitch? Also, what's the maximum firing distance for the different torpedos? Thanks in advance for any help.
