Glad it helped at least somebody

i tried 7 times to sink a LST on open ocean. EVERY time it overshot. i kept using the ruler, then on the 7th attempt i plot a course and it gave me 785m.

I used that and it finally hit

just barely though. hit the tip of the bow. there was something wrong with my TDC. i input all my data. waited for him to roll over the "0" mark ( i got all my data set for a shot there) and it just kept overshooting.
