Torpedo spreads

[ddiplock]

Hey guys, i'm having some difficulty in getting my torpedos to "spread" out and hit different parts of a target ship. I've been using the torpedo tutorial to practice my "spread" skills with the offset angles, and i fire each of my torpedos with my periscope aimed at different parts of the crusier in the training mission, but all the torpedos seem to relitavley hit near the front of the ship.

I fired 4 torpedos at that mogami, firing each torpedo with my scope aimed at the foreward guns, the bridge part, the smoke stack, and near the back of the ship. All 4 torpedos struck the front near the guns, not one of them seemed to spread out and hit ALONG the ship like I wanted. But if the offset angle is too great, then I think the torpedos sail AHEAD of the ship and then end up missing. The manual states, depending on where your optics are pointing when you fire your torpedos, that is where they will hit, but i'm finding that hard to beleive :S

Any tips for a skipper guys?

cheers
