I seem to be finding more and more problems with this sim. Maybe its because I have the Steam version? Anyhow, I have ordered the DVD version.

Anyway, lets get back to what I wanna ask.

When I watch tutorial videos, especially the one that explains the 3 minute rule for finding speed, I noticed that when I try and get distance I can not see it in Yards. I can not see that the ship I am chasing has moved 1000 yards in 3 minutes, for example. All I see is 0.3nm or something similar.

I put it on Imperial in the sim but does not do anything.

I even don't have the 3000 yard bearing plotter that RokkinRobins(?) describes in his video when he zooms in sufficiently.

The video tutorial I am specifically talking about in this thread is the Dick OKane targeting video.

Is the Yard's and the Yard Bearing plotter mods?

Sorry for such noob questions. If I could actually figure this stuff out I may finally be able to get somewhere with this sim.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
