If you got sorted out how Werner did it (I think you could call this the way the developers intended to have this game played), let me know. However, if you don't want to help through Discord and Twitch (for instance), then let me know about it, too. Perhaps with some direct questions I can still figure it out.
To the others who replied: I'm sorry that I'have singled out Gray Lensman's reply from all of the others. I think that your methods are of course good, but I would first like to try the way the game is set up to be played. I will look into the others ways when it is necessary for me to be able to enjoy the game.

Just because I was able to point out what I thnk Werner was doing and not mentioning doesn't mean I'm proficient at his method just yet. LOL. I've played SH4 on/off for several years now and spent all that time lining up Dick O'Kane fast 90s (close in 500-700 yards), mixed in with the occasional Cromwell 45 AOB attack on convoys and now toying with the Vector Analysis Attack Rules, none of which required the use of the Stadimeter which Werner uses. Hard to break from these techniques and they were also historically valid, though maybe the vector analysis method not so much. So far, the few times I've attempted to use the Stadimeter (after reviewing his video above) for range finding, my results are way off and trying to click on the TDC button when the second image of the ship is placed just right has been frustrating since it wants to move on me when I go to click the TDC stadimeter range input button.
Any clues as to how to lock the image in place while moving the mouse to the TDC input button would be helpful. When I click the mouse button as you would to remove the mouse focus from the scope view the second image disappears before I can click the input button on the TDC. Probably doing something incredibly simple wrong. LOL
Basically, until I get proficient at Werner's method, I'm just not your guy yet, sorry.
I'll be glad to help once I am proficient, but at the moment, I've had to reinstall/restart the sim several times this week due to saved game contamination and therefore little time for experimenting with Werner's method other than my failed attempts to make the stadimeter reading read anywhere near the same as the on-map measurements.
