How to get range when stadimeter lies
Same here

From the tutorial mission alone, I found that one ship required me to use the top of the funnels, and another to use the top of the masts. And one ship was somewhat inaccurate no matter what reference point I used... (like a 200m error when it was only 1km away).

As has been said, the position of the horizontal marking on the scope doesn't matter as it did in SH3. You could be in the heaviest of seas and still use the stadimeter with good accuracy - if only it worked as it should. I've been waiting for this feature since SH3! (Didn't get SH4) Still waiting

Speaking of manual calculations, I need to find myself a nomograph to print out. Easier than adding one to the SH5 map. Anybody have any links to hand? I'll go pay Google a visit in the mean time.
