Nearest visual contact in YARDS???
 
Is there a mod that will change the way nearest visual contacts are called out? The nav map and TDC works in yards, so why does my WO give me the nearest visual contact in FEET instead of YARDS? Is there a mod or setting I can change to make the WO give me nearest visual contact in yards?

As far as I know this has never been corrected. Must be hard coded or someone would have fixed it by now. Seems silly that the devs put this in or didn't catch it. :06::06:

Sadly, the fix to this seems to be to learn to estimate division by three. It gets easier with practice.


How stuff like this managed to slip through, I have no idea. There are a lot of minor issues that could make a major difference if they had been included to begin with. :damn:

Dang. I was afraid that was going to be the answer. Oh well. Better get out the ol' calculator

It's not a bug, it's a feature.

By doing a quick & dirty conversion in your head you are removing the unrealistic accuracy of the range as supplied by your W.O. The poor guys playing SH3 have to have a patch to do this.:03:
