the more I work on my own GUI, the more I come to the conclusion to give up and use your OLCGUI 1.2.7, stop modding myself and finally start playing. never played a career until now.

the reasons why I did not use your GUI were:

a) this double-mast thing which I never understood....don't try to explain it, because you already explained it somewhere in a thread - I know.

b) I could not answer the question, how targeting with WP-assistance works in your GUI. what is the sense of the "identify target"-button, when there is no button to put the solution of the WP into the TDC. I want to play manual targeting, but I want to have the option to use the help of the WP sometimes.

By the way: Is OLCGUI 1.2.7 the final version or is there any patch or similar?

Greetings!

Thanks for the kind words.

1.2.7 was the last version which had two zoom levels on the scopes.
And by way of correction, let me say that my GUI hasn't used doubled masts for some time now. See OLC 'Gold' MkIIc which is the latest version.

I say this only for clarification - I don't expect you to use it.

A suggestion for your problem: instead of having one button for each pair of dials (as in stock) you could have a single button which switches all three dials at the same time. That would free up the other two buttons, one of which you could use for the TDC switch (as described above).
