[REQ] set target speed in 1-knot-steps

...instead of the current 2-knot-steps.
Is this moddable?

see here http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...88&postcount=1 if this is what you're asking about.

thank you, but that's not what I am talking about.

When using manual targeting, one can set the target's speed manually. This currently is only possible in steps of two knots (0,2,4,6,8,...). So, if a target runs 5 knots, you can only set the speed in the TDC-dialog to 4 or 6. This is inaccurate, especially at longer distances.
So what I would like is that one can set the speed in steps of 1 knot (0,1,2,3,4,5).

gotcha....have some patience, I'm working on something for my UI mods that I think people are going to love if I get it working (and it's been a lot of work so far).

In case it's the "old" TDC-Inteface: a lot of people will be glad about this, but I fear I am different

I like the new interface for manual targeting, it gives me the "I collect the data and tell it to my WO and he puts it into the TDC"-feeling

Click on the speed, then you can type whatever number you want..
But yeah, making it so you can go up and down in increments of 1 knot would be good.

No problem mate.
I was getting really angry with the interface until I figured that one out
