Yep that makes sense, I guess if TDC is on, it's gonna track middle of target, right? No matter where you aim the scope. Was thinking, in my stupidity that you had to lock and turn on TDC to get the right ship targetted, then turn off the lock to aim for a spot...

It might have helped if you could move the scope while on the attack map plot, then I could see the torp track move (nor not move, if TDC was on) as scope bearing changed...

Thanks Yanaran, I'll give it a try! Would make my day if I could put the torp right where I wanted without messing with that spread cr*p

Something else about the sinking of Shinano I was just reminded of: even though she only took four torpedoes, and a lot of the problem was bad damage control, she still took seven hours to sink. I'd call that a well-built ship.
