I am using auto target this patrol till I get use to the game.

I found that most of the shots are at the low speed. Maybe the TDC uses the high speed as a default and miscalculates. Anyways. My SOP now is to put a 5 degree right angle spread on my first shot. It seems to put it in the middle.
And happening for me also. I saved to one point where one merchant is closing in, and im already positioned myself for the perfect spot. I always missed with all the torpedoes with auto targeting. I noticed that the PK and stadimeters range numbers didn't quite match, so then i thought to give a little spread angle to torpedoes... about 2.5 to the left in this case, and then all my 4 torpedoes hit.

So.. am thinking that might be just better to start learning/using manual targeting, if one has to tweak with spread angles with autotargeting.
