I'll just continue to move that Stadimeter down further on the image and estimate where it should probably be.
I can understand that! Hearing my diving officer reporting "Depth 30 meters!" would not only be wrong, I would probably only hear the "30" part and (thinking in feet as I should...) order "Make your depth 250!" only to hear the sound of my pressure hull being crushed like an eggshell

Nefarious, have you looked at Mav87th's Cameras.dat mod?

Might fix your Stadimeter issues - he says it modifies the magnification level for the Observation scope so that it works with Kim Ronhof's Range Calculator SH1 whiz-wheel. I built one of those wheels this week and it's nice but just don't work with default scope mags in SH4. If the mod does what he says, it should be just the ticket for accurate ranges!

I d/l'ed it today but haven't tried it yet. You can get Kim's wheels here if you don't already have 'em:

Search for:

Kim Ronhof's Manual Tools With Guide

and you'll find it.

DH
