I largely agree with
Donkey-Shot's proposal here. Although, personally I would be happy with a much simpler system. i.e.
- You enter a distance on the notepad (hey I like the notepad :P ) calculated as usual and centre the scope on the target ship.
- You start the stopwatch and press a mark button located next to the "send to TDC" button.
- The crew plots the following info: Own location, target ship location, line connecting the two, index (mark #1, mark #2 and so on) and time. Time could be either game time or, in my opinion preferably, stopwatch time. So mark #1 could have a time of close to zero, mark #2 could have a time of 3:15 etc. Of course if the stopwatch is not running, then game could be used instead.
Implementation details aside, it's good to see that this idea is popular around here. I spotted a lot of modders on the other thread and that makes me hopeful that if such a thing can be modded in for SHV it will happen.
