Secondly, do the torps do more damage to the keel the nearer to it they explode?

1. no its not possible. the pistols and torpedo speed are defined in different files and there is no connection between both.

2. no. You either hit the keel or you dont. The keel zone is not "inside" the ship it is a virtual zone that is under the ship. You can only hit the keelzone when the torpedo literely explodes under the ship. If it does, it will always be critical.
