home and end keys also serve for sweeping manually with the radar. You must first stop the rotation, then you can sweep around with those keys, exactly like you do with the Sonar

You can also use the mouse wheel to rotate the radar, which to my knowledge, is something new.

Saaay... Can anyone tell me which command in the .cfg file is the "estimate range at current speed" order (as in SH3)? It should be somewhere in the Navigation Officer section, but I can't seem to find it...

Thanks!

Has anyone found the key that wipes out the TDC contents and fires a torpedo where my periscope in looking (automatically switching from bow or stern tubes according to the direction)???? I've been looking for that one for some time and am going to give some IJN destroyers a rough time when I find it.

For those of you keeping track at home, the command is CMD_Report_time_to_turn in the Navigation Officer section. Which does not immediately jump out at me as the command you'd issue for an estimated range at current speed, but there you have it.

A little history lesson to all you keymap impaired Captains.

CCIP posted the first mod for SH4 on SubSim namely " setkey mod"
which mapped the keymap to SH-3 The same day we preorder Capt's got our grubby mitts on it.

It also included new keys for most if not all functions you've posted and a few more. All are shown on F-1 key.

This keymap is also used on TM.

We can all thank CCIP for makeing SH4 easier and better from day one.
