thanks Contact, helpful on one thread, trolling on the next, lol

ok this is my first go with the OLC GUI so please bear with me people...

no bearing ring around the boat at the navmap where you can draw a plot, is that correct? there is one on the attackplot if you click the '?' but you can't plot there.
is that how it's supposed to be or have I missed something?

I have option 2 (with LRT) and fatigue turned off atm. no effeciency bars are shown in the crew management and my torpedo load time is 12 minutes with a full forward torp compartment with all the qualified guys. is that about right? or will it be better once we get some medals and stuff?

lastly for now, I can't get my head around this one: small merchant (edit) in the scope. count the vertical bars, drag that value to 90, look at 19,5 (mast height) on the outer ring, tool says range 1500 which checks out nicely. Now, click and hold at 19,5 and drag to 78,5 (length) and count horizontal bars which in this case was 22. look at 22 on the inner ring.... and the 22 mark is just left of the 90 mark on the AOB finder...

try again and again and again and again and each time it gives me a reading outside the tool (-> to the left of the 90 mark)
I hope i was clear in my description of the problem and I wonder how stupid I must sound right now... but please explain that one to me
(ps I fiddled with the attackdisk to get his true heading for plotting purposes. should I not have done that? should I reset the attackdisk before touching the AOB finder? how do I do that?)
when I get a new target in the scope it works fine again -> reading between 90 and 30 AOB but the first one is still screwed i think
*sits down scratching head*

thanks

pps i don't think I mentioned that this is one fine piece of modding! hats off to OLC
