Default Fire spread, what all missed?

So now that I got a mod working so I dont get stuck on the conning tower during the first mission, now I try to sink ships. Something is really wrong with the TDC and autotargeting that the only way to hit a ship is manual (ya I was lazy for a bit). After I locked on to a ship and fired a single torp at a perfect angel, the torp misses its target, frusterated with this, I did a full spread... They all missed, what the hell?

The first mission is the tutorial . Only do what the game tells you to until you reach kiel and then the game starts proper .

You first have to lock on to the target and then unlock. Once you unlock you'll notice in the TAI (mini map) that the yellow line that represents your torpedos path will change to hit your target. Then you line up the crosshairs from your scope to where on the ship you'd like the torpedo to impact and the trajectory will change accordingly.

Sounds like point and shoot. I will give it a try, thanks!
