Thanks OLC (finally got round to speaking with yer)
My main problems (with god view off don't forget) are getting accurate range plots,in order to get my course estimate,as you can no doubt appreciate,being new to 100% realism.I found that by turning on the stabilize view this improves the stadimeter considerably,at the expense of realism %.Ultimately,playing in super realism and playing practically realistic there is a very fine margin,if any.And for all I know stabilizers
might have been used,so enabling it ingame is feasible.
Your 50km method is a good one,for getting a very definite result on the ship's course,but as you said not very practical for when you need to fire under emergency conditions.
I never realised such time and effort (IRL) would have gone into sinking just one ship (observations over days),but aginst a convoy it is perfectly justifiable.
