I noticed a contradiction between the AOB calculator directions and the "High Realism Tutorial" (the one you use to describe hitting a merchant and offer for folks to download). In the latter you write on p. 5 "I think this is a good time to explain to you how to use the Calculator. On the Calculator, move the middle Compass Dial to have the Sub Course Heading (250`) line up with the blue Arrow. Make sure this heading is always kept centered at the Arrow while the calculator is handled. Find the Target Bearing (60`) along the outer blue Base Wheel and read the matching bearing to the middle Compass Dial. The matching bearing is 311...."

In the AOB calculator directions, you mention nothing about using the blue arrow. Which set of directions are correct? The confusion might explain why I stil can't hit anything.

I like the tool, but wanted to understand how I and others, can effectively use it.

TIA!
