So I found this guide (link below) which I found to be easier to follow than the guide with the game.

I successfully used this to determine the bearing of an enemy while sitting still. What I can't seem to figure out is how to use this method to do the same while moving.
I am sure I am missing something simple here. Can someone point me to a similar guide for use while moving?
Thanks in advance.

Honestly I find the 4-bearing method more trouble than it’s worth in my opinion. Try my post here, post #2. No rec manual required, fully historical, right out of KTBs.

Thanks in advance.Well, in that method you are partially moving, between taking the 3rd and 4th bearing. But you (and Stosstrup) is correct, a lot of time is spent doing nothing going no where.
But some around here(Neuro, Kuikeg) have written down steps on how to get it with 4 bearings while moving. And a quite elegant way of deducting the solution by making some non-likely assumptions onhow the target is moving. It's also in that website folder but I'll link the two recent ones on the same method here:
