Still, even with the TCx1 button on, I never get the "ship sighted" message. I play with map contacts off, so I have to watch the TC, and when it drops (usually from 256 to 8 or 6, never to 1) I ask my watch officer to tell me if there's a target in sight (there usually is if the TC suddenly dropped; make sure you're not traveling at very high TC while looking for targets or the TC might drop too late). It's not perfect, but at least it works.
Hmm....thinking out loud here....maybe I should have the order automatically given for watchofficer to look for contacts when TC1 happens
