Is there a mod like this?

i'm wondering if there is a mod like this for targeting:

You aim with the scope and the torpedo will go where you aim with the scope, so you can aim at the front of the ship, fire and the torp will hit him there and then you aim at the back and torp will go there.

I call it the 'arcade manual' :P

That is standard in GWX . I dpn't remember for vanilla version.
If you don't use manual targeting , place the aiming triangle to where you want the torpedo to hit the target and fire.
The torpedo will hit exactly there.
Good luck.

Really? You must lock the target with the aiming triangle and - ever - the locked triangle is the mid of the objective. Really can you aim to bow or in the "aft mast" with manual targeting off???

As far as I know, once the target information is in the TDC you can unlock the periscope and aim for the part of the ship you want to hit.

I personally have it set for 'Manual', but I let the WE do the work for me, and that's the result I get.

New for me, really. I use manual targeting, but when I play with autotargeting, ever I lock the aim triangle, and hit the mid of the ships. New for me...after years of SH3.

Best regards.

After you get the ships information, unlock the scope, then aim where you want to hit.
