Your results are correct (afaik). The course of the target in relation to the course of the uboat (fast-90 or not) isn't the reason that makes range matter. It's how much the torpedo needs to turn (gyro angle away from 0 and 180) that determines the influence of range. The 1st image in Hitman's link/thread clearly shows why.

Well done.

Recorded my results on an Excel spread sheet but could not copy and past it into this post. I noticed that the link above was to a post which included an immage.

How do you include immages and excel sheets in these posts?

Any file needs to be uploaded to some space on the web (rapidshare for generic files or imageshack for images) or on homepage space provided by your ISP.

After that you can just copy the links into your message or write special codes like [img] or [url] to better customize how it looks. But you better read the forum help to learn the latter way.
