He, well, you know what I mean. In practice, a skipper can always exercise his initiative; and if his initiative doesn't pan out, he might be commanding a desk for his next patrol ;-)

I know I'm going to get ridiculed for this, but I'm going to say it anyway. My biggest gripe (other than bugs) is the manual targeting. Yes, I practiced it, got decent at it, but the way it's done in the game takes away the enjoyment for me. It feels like an exercise in tedium. So I use the auto targeting. My enjoyment comes with setting up the attack, and the escape. How about first allowing manual targeting while in auto targeting mode. Simplify manual targeting, if all we had to do was get one or two quick range readings and estimate speed and the program correct errors, then for me, it would be enjoyable. For that matter, targeting modes can be done on an increasing scale for those like me or those that want to do all the inputs and calculating manually.

If it takes away from the fun of the game, don't use it
