Stadmeter bug ? Scratchpad and TDC Station?

Man-o-Man! The manual sure does leave some important info out!

Anyway,... has anyone noticed that if the centerline of the periscope is not actually touching part of a ship the stadmeter will not work or send any range information. This creates a major problem if you are attempting to lead a fast boat while attemting a "snapshot" or point and shoot technique. I'm sure this is not reallistic. In real life there is no way for the periscope or stadmeter to know if you are looking at a boat or not. I'm not sure if the devs would consider this a bug or not, but either way it should be corrected.

Another question....How the hell do you find the scratchpad? Also...how do you get to the TDC station and/or once at the station, can you change the settings or just view them. I have seen the station from the control room, but can't seem to actually get to it as you could in SH III.

Thanks!
