Hi Gents,

I was wondering if someone can quickly explain to me how you take photos using a Gato class sub during photo recce missions?

TIA

Same as with any other sub. Sneak in, lock your periscope on targets and click the photo icon on the periscope roster of your status bar, repeat with varying targets until Mission Complete.

So which is the lock button. Sorry, but I am new to the game.

Thanks for the reply.

The "L" key.

No worries, the following thread sums up every objective you will encounter and tells you what to do with them.

This thread helps you greatly with manual targeting, to the point where you ask yourself "Why did I ever consider automated targeting?"

Thanks very much guys, I'll give that a try. I am struggling trying to get across from PH to my objective location and the Betty's are making it tough during the day, and I almost lost my boat taking on a bunch of cruisers.

Thanks
