I'll get back to you on how I do with your suggestions.

It sucks that closer you are to the target, the more drastically the AoB changes per unit time. I guess gthe AoB should be updated last before firing immediately thereafter.

[BTW -- The attack map is nice, and I don't use it to set up shots, but as you suggested I use it to see if I was close AFTER I've shot. Until now, I've been dejected at what I was seeing.]

Again, many thanks!
Sure thing mate. I would suggest you practice on the torpedo tutorial. That's where I got my basic knowledge.

It's a pretty hassle free environment with nice amount of time allowed to set up your shot.

About the attack map, it can be useful. That's the place where you can get a graphical confirmation about the accuracy of your solution.

The attacks are all about patience. Don't fire your shots immediately after your solution si ready. Take some time to confirm your calculations, check everything twice. Only fire if you're completely feel you are ready.
