Anyway, it shouldn't affect targeting unless you specifically use that image to aid your calculations, and it would only be out by one degree anyway, so shouldn't really make a difference if you're close.

It should not be too difficult to correct the image with a 'photoshop' program by counter rotating the image 1 degree. But that probably would make it more blurry.

thanks guys: fw66 - you are streets ahead of me. i have no idea what res. my screen is set at!
Pisces: it amazes me how good some of the Kaleuns - like yourself, are at maths, working stuff out. when you put it that way it seems like a great deal - 26 meters!! maybe it does not affect game play after all. and thanks again!
