Quick Questions...

...to lazy to search.

- Best depth for sonar?
- Explanation of sonar button and display FUNCTIONALITY (need to know HOW to use it exactly as the way the SHIV implements this stuff is confusing as compared to SHI)?
- Explanation of the radar display FUNCTIONALITY and how the PPI works w/ the A-scope?

Thanks in advance.

THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH for your assistance!!!!

FYI, I did look at the stickied guides and there was not enough info. there. And the manual is a joke since this functionality wasn't even completed when the sim was released.

I suppose it was a bit of a cheeky response I will grant you that at least
and apologize but the opening statement was bound to draw it I am fairly
confident of that from somebody.

none the less I do understand about the manual being a little shall we say
dilute. and if you would grant a bit of forgiveness I will see if I can be of
some assistance.

Sorry about that, just having a little fun

Anyway I sent a PM to another member here who should be able to explain this to you better than I can.

Your right about the manual, use it as a coaster or something. This place is your manual.

Thanks guys. And, yea, I knew you were joking - as was I.

Sonar:
- Best dept to pick up targets? (Somewhere below peri depth I belive)
- How does one actually get the bearing info to the TDC? Just clicking on the notepad doesn't seem to do it for me (maybe I am just an idiot?

)

RADAR - thanks for the - forthcoming - help in this area as the A-scope is pretty straightforward (drive toward the blobs!) But not sure about the PPI scope - both how to use it and how to interpret it.

Thanks.

BH isnt that backwards in the labelling there?

PPI puts dots on the screen in the circle and A scope should
put it up like an Oscilliscope display.
(Im sure Im right about the labels but maybe not.)
any way IIRC theres a bearing indicator somewhere on the box
as opposed to the display and the peaks in the graph represent
range to target measured from left to right (scale varies on a switch)
Further the hieght of the
peaks indicates strength of signal return and therefore gives some
indication of the size of the target.

you know im gonna have to load this game in the morning.

Just a few feet below PD has worked best for me.

As far as bearing, so far with Manual Targetting I am using the following method:
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...8&postcount=25
At this point in time I have not gone to far past this

Anyway, someone will come along and answer your questions more in detail, as well I am sure the member I mentioned above will get to you with some info.

This is another nice little guide: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...3&postcount=46

Thanks in advance.

Avoiding it or being detected by it?

honestly this one is gone in twenty four or fourty eight hours its just an
adjustment obviously from your statement you already know how to
drive a sub and the interface will work itself out to instinctive in a few
days is all I think but if you do need more by all means pm me.

some help with the radar I will have to either get back to you a bit
later or hopefully someone else will see fit to see past my own impertinence
and throw in the PPI info.

Sorry again.
