Default Periscope problem

I'm having a rather annoying problem. I press the left mouse button on the periscope to move it freely with my mouse but when I press it again, the cursor moves over the fire button and fires a torpedo. Are there any known mods that can cause this? Is it known that two specific mods not working well together might cause this?

The problem is that when I click the periscope view to move it more freely and accurately with mouse and when I click the left mouse button again, to get the cursor again visible, it immidiately launches the torpedo.

Thanks! Got it working when I changed the res to 1024x768. But it came with a new problem. Att. periscope does not rise at all and when rising the obs. scope it raises the att. scope.

Edit: Okay, got it working. But I got a new problem.. I'll ask here since I don't want to start a new thread because of a small thing. In navigation map, when pressing that '?' button and ruler, appears that compass but it's backwards. 180 degrees is pointing north and 000 degrees south. I'm using Pato's tool. What's the problem?

No problem. It's a plotting tool ... plotting from your boat (usually) to a point of destination. Ergo, when you click and drag the tool north, you read your heading along the course line ... which would be at the bottom of the tool. Same goes for any heading you plot.
