Nope didn't work not even close.

I just don't understand what I'm doing wrong.

I never miss on OM, n.e.v.e.r. This mod is hardly any different from OM other than the TDC.

I just do not understand.

Again, I know the exact course, speed and AoB of the convoy, hell I know the exact time in which I need to turn from my navigation course to my intercept course (before I even make visual contact), 01:00 hrs.

I enter the AoB since it always pops up first again off the assumption of the guides I put it to 75 (right to left) click the thing twice, enter the speed 12 kts click it twice, then send bearing to TDC which should turn to 0 but I'm noticing the gyro angle says 0 but the bearing from the bow is (the bearing from the bow that is the torpedoes course) >>>>260<<<<<. My correct solution is so far off the torps run out of fuel before the ship even cross the "wake" of the torpedos.

Am I to understand that I can not move my scope once I have entered the solution?

At what bearing should I send bearing to TDC? 0 or 15 or 345? All the guides have assumptions in them, radar, better than Mark 14 torpedoes not in S-18 class. *Sigh* sorry to go off on a rant, I think I'm just trying to hard.

Any way I can put the solution view back into RFB without breaking the mod? I doubted it.

I'm going to try a few more times and just give up. This is really bad for blood pressure.

EDIT: My previous post should have read "Nothing is **funnier** than jokes laced with history" Sounded like I was being an ass with what I had wrote

Sorry! Gonna go have a cig and a few deep breathes and try once more and see if that will work.

Thanks to all who have been walking me through this, I'm sure your pulling your own hair out on account of me.
