Default Identifying Ships

Being stealth hunters, night is the optimum time for an attack. I have a hell of a time identifying a target at night. I've tried changing the gamma, but it ends up with a washed out looking image.

I usually end up with 2-3 choices of ships. Range and AoB are pretty easy to calculate. They are, for the most part not dependent on the ship type. Speed is the variable that I get stuck on and it's one of the most important. It's also where my shot misses the most. Without a correct ship length, I really can't get a solid speed.

If any of you have any tricks or techniques, I'd love to hear them.

Thanks,
MacGregor
