Formula Question

This is the correct one,

[ ( ConvoyDistance / 100 ) * 3.33 ] * ConvoySpeed = Traveled Distance of Convoy

or as you put it

[ ( ConvoyDistance * 3.33 ) / 100 ] * ConvoySpeed = Traveled Distance of Convoy

I was typing it in from memory at the time, so I apologize if it looked confusing...

His grafical solution looks like an intercept course of ca. 184.54T.
The mathematical solution , however, would be 183.48T.
So with this grafical solution a torpedo would miss the targeted hitpoint by around 18.5m at a range of 1km. The uncertain of this graf. solution are the unpredictable errors of the SH5-map-tools which can be greater or smaller.
