Thank you for your reply. Your guess was also accurate, that's the problem exactly, it's not a whole lot over 90, just a bit but it is..
Other than i should be at a 90 angle, i'm not sure what is an ideal firing position (rangewise). Just to be sure about the possibility i'm not screwing the measurement up, please, if you have GWX 2.0 and OLC mod (for 2.0 of course) installed, check the medium cargo merchant ship for.

Another note: on the map thisship seemed almost at a 90 degree angle but slightly over that meaning less than 90, something around 85 i think which makes it moving away from me... i seem to get a pretty inaccurate range depending on what you think is an accurate range (+-100 meters at around 1800 meters) although i spent alot of tries (on the same mission to make sure the starting conditions were the same) lining up the scope to the water mark and counting very carefully the vertical marks. Another problem were which is basically a magnification problem (discuss) is you can basically only tell full marks and maybe half marks. I don't know what kinds of errors this translate to but i still love the mod, think it's the best GUI for GWX 2.0 and mos def the most realistic one.
