Speed and distance isnt a problem just trying to work out the AoB lol.

I have been trying when the destroyers have been searching for me, I have had very little luck as setup as a random shot, but i`l try what you have said and see what happens.

Thanks
I'm wondering why you are doing guesswork. There are tons of different tools available - the biggest thing that is different is you will have a gyro angle approaching 90 degrees with a parallel attack vs. a zero gyro angle during a perpendicular attack.

I have done the "math" side of setting up, from my experience I found it does take a while, with the guess work I have been doing I can set up quickly, running around trying to find a firing solution on several ships using rulers etc just takes too long. I wonder if real U boat commanders did all their calculations by guess work and observations?
