Auto TDC consistently misses (torps arrive late always)

Yes, lots of folks have confirmed and posted on this. That cruiser in the torp school has a lot holes in his hind end! To my knowledge no one knows the root cause.

The usual advice is to make sure your bow cap is open, that you update the TDC with range (and therefore bearing) right before you shoot, etc. If you do all these things, the torp still goes aft, so its clearly some kind of a bug.

Until addressed, you can compensate by adding a few degrees with the salvo switch or a few knots of speed over the actual speed of the target.
