OK -- I finally got the game and installed it, tinkered around with the historical missions to get a feel for the GUI and the hot keys.
Start the campaign - go the bridge, sink the first ship (with manual targeting) - turn the TDC off, and proceed to a slow moving convoy of Polish merchant ships - finally get the TDC turned back on, and it won't let me identify the ship types. I figure what the heck -- I can fudge the range with the optical range finder. I click on it -- and the game which had been otherwise running fine...completely exited the second I attempted to figure the range! (Not that I could've figured out the range without the mast height).
A big what the heck to UBISOFT Romania. Guess I should've braved manual targeting in SHIII or SHIV!
