That darned triangle...

Is there a mod to get rid of the little triangle you see in the UZO and 'scope? The little green/yellow/orange/red one that shows you if you have an ideal firing position.

Nope, but you can play without auto-TDC you know

(using WO assistance for targeting isn't really harder than playing with auto-targeting - you just have to push a button)

Yep, that's the way I do it.

I did... and for some reason it won't go away! It's following me wherever I go!

OLCG2 removes it from all scopes, however triangle is still visible if you order a deck gun fire or AA. You will see a triangle above the ship or aircraft which is currently being attacked.

What did you do exactly? You need to turn on 'Manual Targetting', and you can't do that once a campaign is underway, so you have to start a Single Mission, then go into options and change it there, which will change if for the whole game. Then you need to turn on 'Weapons Officer Assistance'.
