[REQ] Move tab on TDC Pullout?

panthercules · 04-27-07, 09:26 PM

I'm using somebody's great tweak idea that moved the big red "fire" button on the lower right torpedo pullout, to make it less likely that you'll fire a torp by mistake when using the stadimeter (great work, whoever that was - sorry I lost the thread reference).

It got me thinking - the fact that the pull-out tab for the left-side TDC pullout (PK and torp settings) is near the bottom means it gets covered up by the recognition manual, so if I forget to pull it out first I have to close the manual to get to it (which is doubly painful since the dang manual doesn't open back up to the ship you were looking at - is there a fix for that yet, BTW?). Is there any chance to mod/tweak something so that the tab for this TDC pull-out is moved up to the top so it won't be covered by the recognition manual?

Someone made a 'smaller' recon manual that does the same effect. It was released as a Mod. check the threads to find it.

I would like to see the TDC entry dials also on the Attack Map screen, should just be a change to the Menu.ini. Nice to use when doing a manual attack with 'contact updates' on to see your firing solution without having switch between the Periscope and Attack screens to enhter new data.
