The lines on the stopwatch are easy:

There should be a line for a ship length of 100m, 150m & 200m. It is written at the beginning (clockwise) of the line.

Just pick the line wich is nearest to the length of your target, when you're stopping the time, wich your target needs to cross the line in your periscope.

Then you should be able to read a first estimation of your targets speed on this line. Of course you have to identify your target first, to get it's length.

This isn't very accurate, I suggest you use the way with the AOB finder to get the real speed of your target.

I got a question too: What is the difference between the OLC GUI and the OLC Ubermod (OLC Gold)? I've looked in the threads, but i can't get more information than "OLC was here..."
