this is only the proper way if you use map contact updates. You tell me - do you think this was the way actual u-boat skippers gathered range data in very rough weather?
SH3 makes using the periscope in rough weather a bit trickier than in real life because of the absence of split-prism scopes. This feature is present in SH4 and 5.
Even so, with practice it's possible but to no great degree of accuracy - but what do you need accuracy in range estimate for anyway?
Just maneuver to get close to that target and use other methods to get speed data than plotting, e.g. collision course method or fixed wire method
