Well, I'm certainly glad that I aced Trig back in the day...

...because I just tried, for the fun of it, to use the "calculate firing solution" shortcut instead of just doing it myself as I usually do. The results were... Amusing.

First off, it took forever for the poor guy to finish his calculations (which, I admit, is an improvement in realism over SH3 where he would come up with speed, course, AOB and distance in a fraction of a second) and second, his numbers... A freighter doing 26kts at about three times its actual distance and don't even get me started on his AOB "guess"timate.

I have met Bernard again. He transferred with me from SH3
