That works in just about any view, including the deck gun, pressing the minus sign will reset your view to 000 relative.

It's probably a well known thing but I stumbled across it the other day whilst cruising off Ireland. If you right click on an officers icon in the bottom left hand corner, it will take you to their station.

Hello mates.

I just recently read in a thread (and now can't remember where or the exact details) that you can have your deck gun crew target a ship via the binoculars by simply _______________? Can't remember. Was it right click on it?

Please help this middle aged memory get it together.

KeptinCranky · 11-17-2007, 01:03 PM

the answer is by pressing space bar when it's in the binocular crosshair, also works for planes, probably works for the UZO too

Jimbuna · 11-17-2007, 01:08 PM

Doesn't work with the UZO

Stealth Hunter · 11-17-2007, 01:22 PM

Run softly, be quick and precise in attacks, have back-up plans if something fails, stay sharp, do regular checks, make and improve attack plans, carry a big stick.

5string74 · 11-17-2007, 01:41 PM

Thanks...the spacebar. My binos have no crosshairs...that matter? Is that a mod (crosshairs)?

KeptinCranky · 11-18-2007, 03:10 AM

whoops, sorry, yes GWX removes that crosshair....center the target in the binocs and press spacebar...

Jimbuna · 11-18-2007, 07:09 AM

LOL :rotfl:

Press "." and "," to see yous sub and any other contact you have in range including aircraft. (press "." to jump forward through the contacts and "," to go back). Also by pressing H you come to the hydrophone (I presume you knew that) but press H again and you will return to previous station.

And a question I cant jump to the right page in the recmanuall by pressing ships name in the UZO or periscope view, would be a marvelous utility thou.

Don't press the ship-name...click on ship:
