I'm curious as to the effects the two separate boxes have. WO Assistance, and Manual Targeting. I can pretty much intercept a ship/convoy and get myself lined up to 90 degrees to the target almost without fail. How much of a stretch is it from here?
Also, if I play Naval Academy using manual targeting does the game walk me through the ins and outs?
I absolutely love this game, and can't believe I'd never so much as heard of it 6 months ago but I'm just finding it a bit easy playing the way I am now.
Cheers in advance...

Ahoy!
I feel like we may be in a similar boat, so to speak.
I recently got interested in this game and really enjoy it, however one of my big draws was the thought of doing the manual targeting. For me, that means no weapons officer assist and manual targeting checked on!
Personally I am at 68% realism I think. I like to keep camera's and action cam type stuff on.
From what you are doing now it doesn't sound like it would be a big leap. Here are some resources I used to help acquaint me with manual targeting methods, primarily the fast 90 I believe it is called.
You may find that a bit more challenging. Just wait till you try to sink a juicy target in stormy weather and you can't get a good or confidence fix on their speed, and when you finally do the fish explodes halfway to target
