Speaking of that command, is there any way the report can be changed so that the officer gives the range in yards and not in feet?
He gives the range in feet? That's pretty messed up. I dunno - it's probably beyond my ability to mod. I just hope the devs get around to fixing it so that the game isn't giving us feet or metres instead of yards and kilometers instead of miles. You'd think that would be one of the first things they'd address, but apparently not.

I'll see if I can get that nearest visual contact button added. It may take a while though as I'm taking a week or two off modding SH4. I'm going through an arcade game phase so I've been playing Battlefield 2142 and this week Top Spin 2 (the PC's first real tennis game, just in time for Wimbledon!). I also had my birthday this week (I'm 45) and I got an XBox (yup, more arcade stuff - don't worry, I'm not giving up on realism - just getting this arcade bug out of my system). The XBox is really to enable the family to play games - my wife would rather be dragged into the gaming world than be a computer widow and my daughter wants to get into computer gaming at the tender age of 4, so I figured I might be able to get a Spongebob game or something for the XBox for her.
