The reason you are missing is it doesn't take into consideration the door opening time.

I think its the Q key to open tubes.
This will make the torpedoes travel to the left (stearn) of the ship. Not the front.

I dunno what ctrl/shift/del does but ctrl/alt/del will close the program and possibly reboot the system.

I think he was being... uhh... a smart arse.

Default Auto targeting

Ignore the green triangle as it is incorrect. Instead, wait unitl scope shows the ship to be plus or minus 5 degees of zero or less and then fire your torp.

it sounds like you are not opening the door. press 'q', and wait a few seconds, like was mentioned earlier.

What about speed and distance? You can't hit them all the time by just going between 0 and 5 degrees.

You know thats a good point.

The closer you get the less chance of error. I rarely fire from outside of 1,500 feet.

The advice to wait on the doors to open is solid as well.
