Hmmm, does this mod override some TDC realism settings in the Gameplay section in Options? I've just completely missed two merchants passing fore and aft of me, both at 450m and I have no idea why.
I'm not familiar with this game for any manual TDC trickery just yet so was relying on auto TDC. As far as I recall I definiately had manual TDC unchecked, although in an astoniishingly lame feat of design, you can't even review your current difficulty settings whilst on mission because the Gameplay settings tab in the Options screen is disabled.
I locked on to each ship before firing and positioned the scope slightly ahead of the mid sections of the ships and fired. The lock on marker was green, presumably indicating a good angle?
Looks like that torpedo firing tutorial at the start of this game is even more worthless than I originally imagined as it bears absoluetly NO relation to attacking ships in a real campaign.
I didn't think it was so easy to miss with auto TDC enabled. Or it may be my utter noobishness shining through. Any tips and advice would be welcome
