How To Use Torpedoes

Oh I agree m8 I would much rather be using a TDC (planing the shots)

Hey all,

This is really a great thread and very helpful. However, I noticed in the manual that I'm supposed to be able to set a gyro angle on my torp. Just can't seem to find which button to push (maybe it does it automatically). Anyway, playing the US version of the game.

And might I add....after playing E:RT, I don't think I'll ever go back to SH2 again....sorry UBISoft.

The gyro angle is automatically set by the tactical binocculars/scope. After applying the new patch, you can adjust the gyro angle manually too.

VERY cool!!! Thanks.

2. Finding Reverse True North Bearing
Need:

Bt(n) = Bearing to Target Relative to True North from Sub ** from Section 1 above

Will Get:

Bs(n) = Bearing to Sub relative to True North from Target

Code: Select all

Bs(n) = Bt(n) + 180
if ( Bt(n) >= 360)
{ Bs(n) = Bs(n) - 360 }

if ( Bt(n) >= 360) -----> Should be if ( Bs(n) >=360)

odog1999, are U willing to break the secret of torps in Enigma? Are U trying to build a portable TDC? Because if its the case welcome! You'll soon understand that nothing works better then training!!

I'm sort of trying...

BTW- I can't seem to find the key/button to press to bring up the torpedo settings.

Here's my way of firing torps:

If the enemy looks fairly far away, aim half the ship's length ahead of it- the torpedo should hit the rear. If its pretty close, just aim for the front. If you're going against an evading target, get in VERY close and fire, or fire a 4 torpedo spread.

Wow loads of help, now rember its a game

If nobody minds I will try to get those formulas into a small delphi program.
