I've switched to estimating the speed of the ship by only waiting half of the time of 3:14, that is 1:37 (because of impatience rather than lack of visibility time

) Just double the result to get the same answer. So far, the extra inaccuracy has been OK, but I am using automatic map updates which makes it easier.
I suppose one could get a really rough guess of target speed by halving the time again (and again? :hmm: )
Is there any chance in SHIII of estimating a ship's speed by the size of its bow spray? That would be cool.
