Training mode for full realism?

GhostShip · 05-08-11, 06:32 AM

I want to know how I can play with Real Nav and manual TDC, but also have the option to check my range/AOB/speed estimations vs the actual if I ever want to.

If there was a button somewhere that I pressed that gave me the actual target range/AOB/speed, tactical map marking and torpedo path.

Also, I am aware there are several ways to determine range/AOB/speed. My current mod setup lets me use the RAOB wheel and the Stadimeter. Are both methods supposed to be used? Was the Stadimeter used by German u-boats?

OK thanks!

Can you clarify exactly what those items listed on the right are when you select "Tutorial" from the main menu? Are they basically a selection of special scripts that you can run as soon as you start a mission? Are some specific only for particular missions?

Your TDC Helper I can kind of understand. You select it before entering a (any) mission and it seems to automatically activate the script. Is this tutorial list really just a shortcut way to start scripts immediately after entering a mission?

The TDC helper is for using in your campaign or any mission. If you are locked onto a ship - you can start it anytime.

In the main menu there are tutorials listed, some are only for missions that have been set for them. If you mouse over the tutorial in the menu, it will give info.
