Periscope Markings in GWX2?
Does anyone know (really know) what the degree relationships to the periscope/UZO markings are?
In stock they are Periscope 1.5X 1 and 5 degree Periscope 4x .25 and 1.25 degrees UZO 7x .2 and 1 degree In running 1.4 with GWX2 and Commander, my periscope is 1.5x (which I can assume is the same as stock) 10x Dese be the numbers I need! The UZO only has vertical scale :( |

You can actually figure this out for yourself! :know: Just use manual targeting mode (without the help of the weapons officer) and read off the number of degrees covered by 10 tic marks; divide by 10 to get the angle of one tic mark. Hope this helps! :) Pablo ========== Periscope views: Observation Scope @ low magnification: 10 marks = 10 degrees, so 1 mark = 1.0 degreeUZO view: UZO (only one magnification): 10 marks = 1.4 degrees, so 1 mark = 0.14 degrees |
Thanks :), those were the numbers I was coming up with, So it is safe to assume that the vertical scale is the same as the horizontal scale at the same magnification?
In my case, I am more interested in the horizontal scale for AoB calculations |

You'd think that would be the case, but I don't know how tightly the game engine ties the on-screen image and apparent size of an object to the range and torpedo targeting; your best bet is probably to set up a mission with a stationary ship at a 30 degrees, 45 degrees, and 60 degrees AOB and see if the bow-to-stern angular measurements work out as the trigonometry suggests it should.

Yup, that is exactly what I plan on doin :)
