hi Harryt8,

why do i 'smell' a little irony at this part of your post ? if i am right ...really is no need for comments like this ...if i am wrong ...i guess is one of these misunderstandings that are usual when posting to forums so forgive me.

at the theme: yes you miss that part becuase it is COMMON SENSE that you will never achieve a STRAIGHT shot to a target ,which is moving from Port to Starboard, when you 'see' him at 5,3 degrees . think a little about it and you will get it for sure !
i would suggest you (if you really like the manual targeting) one day that you will have plenty of free time ...do a big coffee ,get a paper and a pencil and try to understand exactly what angle is doing what (i always draw the situations on paper).draw lines,angles..throw papers away...at first will all seem 'mountain' but slowly ,for sure, you will get it and....(trust me on this)...there is the real beauty of manual targeting hiding. once you understand the angles ....you will really start enjoying your game....and MaGui will become then a real good partner for you.
there is no point to write tutorials like...at 'this' situation...do 'that' and 'this' situation do 'that' ...at 'this'...'that'...etc...i would still would write till today ...tutorials. the main goal ....is to understand .first understand and then...load your game !
have a look at the other tutorial for 'perfect' shots which is more complicated.there are more 'angles' there that are involved and i have provide figures that will help you to undestand the specific angles and how to handle them.

bye

What do you think about having the observation scope 1.5 times larger than attack and the attack scope being much darker so that night use is affected.The observation scope was nicked the night scope due to its larger head allowing more light in....the attack head was skinnier so that daytime attacks were less noticeable.
hi Wolfstriked,
green= tdc is on updating mode...meaning it is updating its data according to scope's bearing
red= manual mode ...meaning it is not upadating.ONLY at this mode(a sh3's engine limitation) you can enter data at tdc

diameters of scopes are not made randomly ! there are reasons that scopes have these diameters

bye
