Wolfpacks are must IMHO...but I digress!

I love the "mark" function Idea as I brought it up for the development of SH3. I don’t think it should be "tied" to a known visual contact...because frankly I've taken measurements on ships my "sensors" have not picked up yet....I think you know what I mean.

If it was stand alone (aka not "tied" as above) and when implemented it would draw on the map.... time (in mins/seconds), angle (that you set on the stadimeter), relitive bearing (looking through the scope), and marked own ship position (assuming we are not going way from moving map concept to a Maneuvering board and real Nav (whole other can of worms)) it would be perfect IMHO.

question ...did uboats (Germans) have a split mirror stadimeter?? those save alot of time figuring out the angle.
