[TEC] Auto TDC tutorial - how to hit a target without connecting the dots - Page 3

Hi olisko
Did you see my Post #28?

It is essential to first open the tube doors with the awitch/es otherwise by the time they open and the torpedo is loose the target will have moved and the torpedoes will always miss.

It is essential to lock the target with the space bar.
Auto TDC automatically puts the torpedo soletion in the middle of the target.
Un-pressing the space bar resets the TDC to where the target should be when the torpedoes reach it.

A further explanation by you would be helpful if these notes are not your problem.

1. Here's the target (Liberty Cargo), approximate distance - 5150 m.

2. Dive to periscope depth, raise the attack periscope.

3. Lock the target (press Space) and identify it (optional).

4. Set the torpedo speed, depth and pistol. Make sure the TDC is OFF.

5. Unlock the target (press Space). Notice the trajectory of torpedo changes automatically to intercept the ship. Move periscope crosshair and choose place where you want to hit the target. Fire tube one.

6. Aim the second torpedo (optional). Fire tube two.

7. Let's see how our torpedoes are traveling through the external camera.

8. First torpedo impact (ship increased speed and started an evasive maneuver, but it was too late for him).

9. Second torpedo impact.

10. The ship is sinking.

11. It's done! We've managed to hit a ship from a large distance (~5000 m) using automatic targeting, without connecting any dots.

Enjoy.

Thank you so much. I can't tell you how much this helped me play better. I was becoming discouraged because I used to miss a lot. A lot lot lot. Now I'm doing much much better. You are awesome.

It probably means the thread has been archived or the image host used has removed the images. It would very useful if someone could please re-upload them as using the TDC so that it works is still confusing for new-comers to the game (myself included - only managed to fluke one hit so far in 20 hours of play).

Today I sank 2 destroyers using this guide. But there is such a problem that when the torpedo is already aimed and fired at the target-the destroyer (although it does not see you at a long distance) makes a sharp maneuver with an increase in speed and the torpedo misses. I think that it is most convenient to attack destroyers on opposite courses in fog or quietly hiding under a wave. As for merchant ships, this instruction does not always work correctly and the torpedo does not have enough 2-3 meters to hit the target.

This is just a guide to tactical shooting. It doesn't need any images available...
