I typed up a procedure for manual tdc operation. I have tested it only a few times, but it seems to be effective. Feel free to comment with suggestions for improvement. All you need is a stopwatch, no mods are required. I hope you find this usefull. Joe S
Manual attack procedures
1) set crew to attack
2) set tdc to manual (green button) set range
3) zoom map
4) click weapons officer
5) raise scope, lock on target
6) get target ID from crew
7) down scope
8) nav map
9) find target on map
10)use ruler to draw target course
11) OPTIONAL
use protractor to obtain aob to confirm you have the right target. Click on a point on the targets course, move to target and click, then move to your boat. Compass displays aob
12) get stopwatch ready
13)mark target,start the stopwatch
14) at about 50 seconds , raise scope, find target, lock
