ultra-noob: recog manual and aiming

FinbarX1 · 05-20-06, 04:47 PM

I started playing this a few days ago and cant believe how great it is.. That said i'm sure i'm doing some major things wrong. If anyone can help me with these two things it'd be incredibly helpful.

1) With the recognition manual, when i see a ship with the periscope and click on 'ship' on the notepad it brings up the ship, sometimes there are boxes below the ship showing where hotpoints are, sometimes there are no boxes. Why do they come and go? even on the same ships.

2) I only just worked out that you don't need to aim the subs nose exactly, you can actually aim between 340 and 20 with the periscope, doh! BUT how do I work out how far ahead to aim with a moving ship..and how do I use the gyrograph meter? I assume its telling me how my sub's trajectory (if moving) will affect my aim?

Again, please be patient, I am obviously a noob. I love this game but won't get half what I could out of it until I sort these things out..specially basic aiming

Thanks alot
