WoS parallel torpedo attack comp setup

[finchOU]

I've found that you need to "play around" with the TDC dials to figure out what they do BEFORE going in for an attack.

Using your 90 attack method (aka a straight ahead shot) I'd play around with the setting until you get a 0 degree gyro angle. This make the torpedo impact your target at exactly 90 degrees and reduces the chance for a deflection (tho if you set the depth too deep it will deflect down). In this specific attack (90 degree torpedo impact) Range really has no affect on the gyro angle beyond like 500 meters. My set up is I line up the scope at 0 degrees. Then turn the TDC on and enter the data Im looking for in a 90 degree shot. That would be 90 AOB (left or right) and Target speed. I turn the TDC back off to slave the scope to the TDC. Now I turn the Periscope (or UZO) until I see a 0 degree gyro angle (on the TDC). Now I note the bearing in the scope. This is the bearing to shoot at for a perfect 90 angle hit.....aka when the target passes directly in front of you at 0 degrees on the scope the torpedo will hit (hence a 0 gyro angle...meaning the torpedo never turns).

For the Parrallel method (which i've never tried)......Distance to target is critical as the gyro angle looks to "intercept" your bearing to the target. I'll have to try this now as I'm curious.
