Salvo Shot Missing Target
Almost 95% of the last shots on my salvo shots end up missing. If I salvo 2, the second one misses. If I salvo three the third one misses, but the other two hit.

I've tried this from different aspects, speeds, ranges. I've tried calculating AOB from midship, bow, & stern. If I narrow the dispersion angle I can sometimes have the entire salvo hit. Also, even though I set AOB and follow (white light on). When I go to fire minutes later (waiting on best gyro angle), the AOB has moved, but is isn't accurate and I have to recalculate.

I'm calculating AOB with the protractor in the map view and the calculations seems accurate. I also double check I'm on the correct side of the setting (port/stbd).

Any tips?

Sorry, for the double post between forums. I am running B128, so I'll abandon the other one. Please see screenshots: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/profiles/76561198066717243/screenshots

HI embraceentropy,

Sorry, I didn't get any info that you had posted here

How do you measure distance and speed? Use the ingame-instruments. The TDC will be updated automatically.
The TDC shows you the maximum spreading angle. I myself always reduce it manually in the Torpedo-UI.
Otherwise everything looks OK so far.

No worries! If I'm stationary I use the built-in chromometer. If I'm moving I use the time tables included with the mod. For this example I used the periscope tool to determine distance and double-checked with the map ruler. I'll keep tweaking my method. Also, I noticed the graduations on the distance dial disappear when using red or blue light, but they appear in normal light. Any thoughts?

HI embraceentropy,

Maybe you can make a screenshot of it.

The most important is the speed and angle. As far as I can see, everything is OK.
And reduce the salvo angle. You can see from the picture how the course of the torpedoes is affected.

If the ship is a little bit faster, then the second torpedo is too late.

Good hunting!

Cheers Ruby

Thanks! I'll make a separate thread about the graduations not showing up.
