Folders and files

Just for Giggles and Tee Hees I thought I would try a instant mission and set the difficulties to EASY just to see what would happen. There I was spotting icebergs and the notepad gave all the info!!!! Range, bearing etc.

Hmmmm. Maybe, just maybe I can try it at my original diffficulty settings and all may just be well. I shall let you know. I am going to dig to see if a 'data file was saved' with that info to compare and contrast. I will seek it out by 'date'.

UPDATE

So my next launch experiment was starting a new career in SH3Commander and at 0 realisim. The notepad worked fine again. So the process of elimination has begun and it feels as good as a corned beef sandwich with dark brown mustard served up by Helga!

I can next ramp up the realisim and see what if anything flumixez or not. Come hither Helga!

Darn, maybe those realism percentage do have something to do with it. I gather from your findings that the game considers you capable of manual targeting enough if you have an overall high realism percentage. Wacky game!

After a few permutations one thing I did find out which I should have known ... if you change your realisim setting for one boat and mission it will lock at that setting for all others! So check and recheck per new boat and career. All is well. The career I had an issue with is now A-OK. I recall I wanted one career with manual targeting, one with auto targeting and that was the root issue.

Pleased your sorted but I can't honestly remember encountering the same problem.

Hmmmm. Perhaps we do not have true success then. When I return from a trip I will fool a bit more! Meanwhile she is going into drydock!
