To me it seems very weird that anyone could find it complicated... It's just a bering and a distance, and yet A LOT of people react to it like a deer in the headlights

Anyhow, there is a lot going on with the game right now, so keep your fingers crossed for both the original (simulation) mode and the new one - hopefully it will bring in a few new souls into the genre


I do not get why people are so confused by 360 bearing system either. I would hope the sim is not dumbed down for that crowd. A option to help with things could be a training mission on 360 relative and true bearings ? Include some useful documentation perhaps? I know I speak as someone who grew up boating, sailing, fresh water and ocean/gulf so perhaps it comes to me a bit more naturally, but still, it's not rocket science. Taught my ex the system and while she was pretty, not exactly the brightest light in the chandelier.
