Ok I feel like an idiot but oh well. :know:
In SH3 I used the 3 minute 15 second rule on the nav map and got ship speed. In SH4 I'm using feet instead of meters and I get the feeling this method can no longer be used??
I calculate the same way, come up with a speed, and end up missing every time. From where the torpedo goes, the problem with my calculations is the speed for sure, I'm coming up with slower speeds than the actual. I confirmed this by using the 3 minute 15 second rule for an escort moving at "fast" speed and only came up with 7 knots. Cant be right....
So how do you do this in the imperial system? I suppose I could switch back to meters, but I'd rather not....
