If I can make a suggestion:
A lot of times when I get stuck or want to try out different things without having to worry about being spotted by escorts/targets or I don't want to deal with weather, I open up the mission editor and make a training miision by sticking one or two, or a whole bunch of ships if I need to, and set the ships at a known course and speed and shoot practice approaches on them. You don't have to worry about stealth or airplanes ruining your approach or anything like that. You can concentrate on whatever it is you want to try out.
This mod sounds like an ideal time to do that until you get the hang of using it.
Now you have two important pieces of information and you can practice plotting using this mod and compare your plotting to what the targets are already doing. You do not have to worry about anything else.
I'm sure that whenever I get going again with SH4, I will be using this mod and probably making a training mission or two.
