Thanks guys. One annoying thing with the standard game is that when setting up for a manual attack the most difficult part is ranging. With the protractor and ruler that could be so easy, but in the basic game I can't work out how to override the split-screen ranging tool and input the range manually. I set up an attack over and over on a ship using the ship identification tool with the (I can't remember the name) split screen ranging tool, only to find I am out by a mile. But it isn't always the case, sometimes it's spot on, and other times I can't get a range!!!

I would like to be able to input the range manually and just use the ship identification chart for keel depth and maximum speed etc.

I hope I am making sense
