I changed the data file in FOTRS per Mr. Nicolas. In TMO/RSRD there was not a data file to change so I changed the stock game. I quit FOTRS for tjhe time being because of the number of planes, which was too much to deal with. But the visuals in FOTRS are terrific.

I am still missing some shots, but I have hit a few in the middle of the night in a dark sea at 1000 yds, firing at around +/-30 degrees off heading, and I nailed a tanker as it crossed my stern with aft tubes firing.

I am sold. I like the fact that once you find course and speed, you can play with the TDC dial for AOB and verify the corresponding TBT result on the attack map. Oce you do that, turn on the PK and sit back and relax until the target changes course. Destroyers often alter course, so they are tough to track.

This mod is right up there with Nisgeis' torpedo angle calculator, and aaronblood's MoBo. Just to be able to tackle thes types of mods requires math and computer skills beyond most skipper's capabilities.
