What I'm working on is say you have the scope raised and you spot a target. You could enable the visual follow target to start following the target. Now you decide to lower the scope but before doing so you ask the sonarman to follow the target on the hydrophone. He obliges and starts following your target on the hydro. You track the target on the hydro for some time and you decide to raise the periscope again. Since you were following the target visually initially AND you were following the target on the hydrophone the scope will automatically pan to the target and enable visual follow target again. If visual follow target was not enabled initially BUT hydro follow target is enabled then the scope will pan to the target being followed on the hydro.

There are some other things also but that's the jist of it....pretty cool
pretty cool you say

man, paraphrasing the famous song, I asked for water and you gave me... champagne!

Now you just made me curious to know what these "some other things" are. Whate else is brewing for us?
