I hate the rangefinder!

Just a noob in SH4, but strongly attracted by the rangefinder in SH4. Realistic and easy to use, the overlay image helps me to find out the range very easily even in rough waters. On the other hand, the goddamn rangefinder in SH3......

Unrealistic and very hard to use. My sight just get moving up and down in bad weather.

How do you guys find out the range in rough waters? Or a dream of me, get the SH4 rangefinder and put it in SH3!

In fact, real life U-Boats had the same rangefinder than US subs, i.e. a tilting prism for superimposed image.

I play mostly with stabilize view allowed in the realism options, other than that at full realism

If possible I try to get range from my WO (so i have to surface and get the range from stalking a target for a long period of time). Or symply use the Scope and use the "cheat" backspace = TC at 0 and you still are able to get range.
