Default What am i doing wrong? (manual targeting)

I'm currently trying manual targeting. In the training mission "torpedos" i don't move. I wondered if it was possible to hit the costal merchant ships from afar. I tune in manual mode. Get the speed for one costal who is moving straight away about 45º port. I'm facing north. His speed being in that wide angle could be determined by the usual method (i have no accessories, currently dwing the gwxm, the compass is HORRIBLE, you can't nothing right at first with that, btw). Now the speed, 2kts isnt nothing spec, range is almost exactly (stable periscope is on, shame on me) 800 meters. The angle, 45º is less clear but i think the real problem is these kinds of merchant ships accelerate quickly when they detect my torpedo. How to insert that? Also when i hit F6 and try to manually change settings i get no digits whatsoever, help please. How can one manually target like this? Obviously SH3 non modded is, in my oppinion inferior to SH2 (at least in gameplay).
