Use " 1.5_Optical Targeting Correction 031312 TMO 2.5" with its Radar that accurately measures a target to within 50 yards or less. You need to know what your looking at, but once understood you can get accurate readings much as the real life radar produced.
There's a tutorial "Using Radar" with the mod that explains how to read the screen.
Of course you need to have a way to input that estimated Radar found range....that's why there is also a Range Dial added to the stock games "Attack Data Tool" to do just that....input Radar data to the TDC/Position Keeper:
You're right, the Sonar/Hydrophone gives exact, to the yard accurate range!?! Not realistic at all, but it is what it is.
You may wish to read the Optical Targeting Correction thread to understand what the mod does, why it does it, and what other version are there to use with other mods or versions of the stock game. |
Actually there seems to be an error envelope of some kind attached to sonar ranges. Ping repeatedly and send to TDC and you'll see that ranges vary all over the place. They're apparently random but it's impossible to know exactly what the game is up to.
