Do I Change the solution to (20-285)+180= -85 ????
-85 = AOB at nose: 85° port. Seems right to me.

Great this - AOB off nose is such a great and fast method. Also getting excellent accurancy.

Hey, ddgrn!! My computer is down, has been and will be for the forseeable future. I am on a small laptop. Haven't play SH5. Is it from the German side? I watched your two videos on Youtube, and I thought they very good even though I haven't played. Nice work. I wonder if I will play SH5 or stick with SH4 and TMO1.9?

Hey buddy! TMO 1.9 is nicely polished I can say, very nice work, its very immerse and if that was the last of the SH series, well, TMO would have been a nice way to go out.

Working with SH5 now, few tweaks few mods, after that its not as bad as some would think ;]

I want to express my appreciation for you work on the Easy Aob mod in SH4. It turned the corner for my boat, and I finally understood manual targeting after using it. Shortly thereafter, gutted unveiled the Solution Solver. After a couple of days trying to figure it out, I was cartwheeling around the room, stopping just long enough to sink ships at long range and at steep angles. Two incredible, game changing pieces of work that reflect great knowledge and application of the underlying concepts of manual targeting using the TDC. (My other favorite is MoBo. Aaronblood is brilliant in my opinion [alternatively, I am dumber than most.])

Keep up your good works, as some of us less technologically oriented skippers (I am being nice to myself with that description) really appreciate your contributions, and when I see your posts I am always wondering what new idea/technique/method you are bringing to the table.
I am off to find that great screen shot someone posted in SH4 of a periscope view of a depth charge obstructing a skipper's view just before his boat was sunk. It is my all time favorite.

Great videos, thanks for the nice visual demo (and the laughs). I appreciate you keeping the booze thematically compliant with the game as well.

Superb video for those of us who do not usually use 100% realism, mainly because we don't know how!!

Thank you very much, hope to see more
