Yep, I forgot to mention that after locking on the target and switching the TDC off, you have to unlock and to aim periscope/uzo onto where you want to hit.

Also, make sure not to upgrade torpedoman speed abilities, since this feature is bugged, and will lead to wrong torpedo solutions. There are several mods that deal with this stock bug by removing the above mentioned ability. Use one of them if you want to be sure not to enable inadvertetly crew's torpedo speed skills.

If you follow these instructions, you should get a 100% hit rate

So lock on target, switch TDC off, then unlock target and aim periscope onto where you want to hit.

When I aim perscope at where I want to hit do I do that before firing the torpedo? Lastly do I have to keep the crosshairs on target throughout the torpedo run, or can I focus on another target?

Sorry for the nub questions but I want to get the SH5 method down pat.

yes, the best way to do it is putting the scope just ahead of your moving target, ready to fire your torpedoes as soon as the crosshair will align with the spot you want to hit. But before doing it, don't forget to flood the tubes and to set speed and detonation method for the torpedoes you want to fire.

Not necessarily. After firing you can aim your scope wherever you want.
