Default Tdc

kaloens!

I decided to try the TDC instead of instinct shooting of torpedoes. I get ****ty results compared to the higher aces.
First I went to the tutorial and wrote it all down in a little notebook.
So, when I try to get the C2 Tanker in the mission, I identify the target, I get the distance just fine by having crosshairs on its waterline and measuring up to the top of the flag or fore-middle mast. I get a good estimated range on about 1300 meters.
Thing is when I am to determine Angle On Bow. I simply just dont get it, when target is in my Periscope at 10 degree left, i put angle on bow at 10 degree left. Then I fire, and torpedoes go FAR ahead of the C2, so i divide up on 10 and I try 1 degree AoB, and its same thing.
Can anybody please help me? Would be much appreciated!

Owh and btw, how do you know exactly where your torpedoes hit? I mean I see evrybody writes like: I aimed for the ammo bunker", and so on. I have a little theory about that but first I just wanna be able to use the TDC to EVEN hit the enemy merchants.

Owh and I`m goin into army tommorow so a quick answer would be fully appreciated!

Salute!
