If it's any consolation, I don't either.

Try entering the bearing in first, and then the AoB. The game does seem to have issues sometimes.

Once you enter your solution, you can move the scope. As long as you don't enter any data, your solution will not change. You can swing the scope around to look at the situation, or even lower it and shoot by sound bearing (I haven't tried that), and the TDC will still be set for your original solution.

You should be aiming and firing when the target is on your 15 or 345 bearing. 15 if he's going from your right to your left; 345 if he's going from left to right. The TDC should take account of the torpedoes' speed for you.
[Edit: Wait, an S-boat?!? You shouldn't even be using the TDC! You should break out the slide-rules, protractors, paper and pencils.]

I'm guessing it probably can.

I don't remember what file it was, but I'm guessing the line graphic was modified.
Ah. It was. It was replaced with an blank line. (See what you've made me do! I had to pause and go dig into the files...

That 8000 ton maru will just have to wait.)
Ok, this should work (but may have unintended consequences, so don't be surprised to see something you didn't expect):
1. Uninstall RFB (I hope you're using JSGME).
2. Go into the MODS\RFB\Data\Menu\Gui\ folder.
3. Rename ContLine.dds and DashLine.dds to ContLine.dds.bak and DashLine.dds.bak
4. Reinstall RFB.

No problem. I got what you meant.
