and you set up for a fast 90, then when the target passes in front of you you have
tta90
bearing0
AOB port 90
and you change change course 20 degrees port
then you have
tta 110
bearing 90
AOB port 20
when the ship passes in front of you you have
tta 110
bearing 0
AOB 110
but unless you reset your TDC to reflect this, it will still say AOB 90 when the bearing to target is 0

Small correction:
....
then you have
tta 110
bearing 20
AOB port 90

That too, depending on when you change course
