Hi - three problems.

Quote:
1 - how do i reset the TDC? In the manual it says "hit the X button on the notepad". Great, er, where the hell is this??
Note pad is found when at the sonar station. I know of no other note pad. No need to reset the TDC because you set up for each new ship anyway.

2 - How can i identify merchant vessels? All i have in the ship identification book are fighting vessels. Therefore this means i can't complete step 1 of "using the TDC" when it comes to blasting freight. It follows that i can't pass bearing and range info to the TDC. As i can't reset the TDC then i have the previous shot saved and can't shoot straight ahead.
Your manual of ships...there are left and right arrows to scroll through the choice of countries and there is one that just says merchants. Click on the book when you get there. It will open to merchants. If you are using auto TDC the TDC should reset every time you lock a target. If in manual, lock the target and set up the TDC. No reason to reset the TDC.

3 - I can't seem to find the hydraphone lol. ??
Two place to get to the hydraphone, task interface at the bottom, click twice or I believe the F8 key. Once there use the up/down/left/right arrows on the keyboard. Use HOME and END key to rotate the head of the sonar.
