I always try to get a torpedo solution by entering manually all the data in the targeting map. I enter bearing, range, aob and speed and i click the button to get the solution and autoupdate. The problem is that after installing sh3 and GWX this way of getting solutions is not more valid cause if i enter datas and 2 minutes later i try to enter latest datas of range (for example) in order to obtain a most accurate solution the TDC give me the same old solution and i can't change it again. The result is that even entering new and diffrent datas in tdc manually, when i click on button always get the first and old solution i got at the begining. :cry:
Anybody had the same problem or knows the reason of this "bug" ?
I play with only manually entering data and weapon officer (just to identify targets)
Thanks for your help
Mysanthropus,
I have what I believe is a similar problem with SH3 but no mods. I also use a weps officer, but I usually leave automatic targeting on. However, after crippling a ship to a standstill (or nearly so), I like to set up for a shot under the target's bow because the automatically-aimed first shot usually hits in aft half of the ship.
I find that if the target was traveling at, por ejemplo, 7 knots before the first torpedo hit it, when I look at the TDC page for manual entry, the target speed is still set to 7 knots. I've lost a lot of torpedoes because they shot way out in front of the target based upon its earlier speed.
If I remember to set speed to zero, and click on the target in the scope or UZO, the speed wheel reverts to target's original speed.
Y su saber del ingles es muy mejor que mi saber de el espanol. Eso hace muy facil leer sus noticias.
Bienvenido!

Thanks for your answer but i think it's not exactly the same thing (maybe related) because i always play in gathering data manual mode. But it's true what you say about changing manually any data on TDC screen.... you click on the button to enter the new information and the data return to its old configuration.
What i think is that in GWX mod, the switch button on/off to enter data manually in TDC screen so as to get a torpedo solution doesn't work as in original sh3. I think that in GWX you can only get solutions automatically or manually by gathering data with notepad (identification,stadimeter, aob and speed).
¿Anybody involved in GWX development could confirm it please?
Gracias por tus palabras amigo mio. Me alegra saber que los angloparlantes entienden mis mensajes a pesar de no dominar su idioma. También yo entendí tu frase en español:yeah:
