With practice you can do it in one step, but to start I used 2.

It's not really that difficult to use one then the other is it? That's one of the easier things to do in the mod :DL. The video is great at explaining entering target course, here it is with a link for those who are cut and paste challenged:

Thanks for putting all that together JCC. :yeah::ping:.

they may have said you whacko, but no one ever said you were stupid. :D
Good idea. When Channing completes the tutorial, maybe he will include a download for a practice mission with all kinds of targets. Hint, Hint. Meanwhile I will set one up.

Whoa Baby!
 
No wonder I did not know what I was doing. I was doing it wrong. I read the new portion of the tutorial. This far more complex that I thought. Good job Mr. Channing!!:up::salute::woot:

Very nice stuff. I've downloaded the whole mess of pictures so I can flip through them.

John Channing 07-31-10 04:14 PM

I am trying to upload the practice mission I used along with part 2 in Powerpoint format.

If this bulletin board lets me!



AHA! Success.

Here's a link to a set of training missions for the radar and one for the TDC. The TDC training mission is the same target as depicted in the TDC tutorial for those that want to follow along:

I'm sure someone mentioned something along those lines before :).

I updated the missions so that they now work from Sub School directly, rather than having to mess around with moving it about. I take it that's the mission I sent you? If so, it's included in the training mission pack link I just posted and will work from sub school (I had the wrong sub selected in the missions).

John Channing 07-31-10 04:37 PM

Pretty much the same, I just moved the Tanker further out so I would have more time to screw things up!

:D

Now that I think of it I may have changed the Sub's position too. Anyhoo.. the more practice missions the better!

New order for the crew of the Barbarinna
 
Cancel all my appointments for the next two weeks. We have some work to do. Get the crew back from I&I. Most of them are at the Royal Hawaiian or at Daisy's House of Women. We set sail in two hours hours. Tell the men that there is a revolutionary new piece of sonar equipment on board, and that we aren't coming back until be learn how to use it. The manual was hand delivered by the Admiral's personal courier.

Tell the medic that since we have been in port for a month, load up on the penicillan.

Nisgeis and John Channing
 
Fantastic piece of scholarly :know: work. Mind blowing actually!

razark 07-31-10 05:58 PM

Why the step of turning off the radar?

John Channing 07-31-10 06:30 PM

There is a bug in the game whereby if you leave the radar station it reverts from "Focus" to "Sweep" mode. If you rurn the radar off before you leave when you come back and turn it back on you will be in the same position as when you left. Cuts down on having to re-acquire the contact and saves you time when you are doing your plot.

Drove me nuts until Nisgeis pointed this out to me.

All the credit belongs to Nisgeis. I just followed along in his wake. Without his coaching and feedback I would have got the whole thing wrong from go!
