I draw a line between "where it was then" and "where it is now".

Yes that's correct. Of course I set the scope point at zero first, and made sure never to turn the scope without TDC auto update being ON.
That (map plotting) is my preferred method of calculating AOB, and it was IRL too, I understand.
I only use the AOB-Finder on rare occasions e.g. one time a fast moving task force with a carrier unexpectedly appeared in poor visibility heading more-or-less in my direction at high speed. I had to dive immediately to avoid being seen. It was moving far too fast for me to flank so I had one chance to shoot and no map data - that's the kind of occasion when an AOB-Finder really comes in useful. |
Thanks for the info!
But since GWX 2.x does't have any contact tails anymore on convoys and single merchants... how do you get the course line so "spot on"?
I mean that one tanker was like 3 clicks away and you still got a perfect hit.
