[HELP] The ruler tool

[makman94]

hello,

@Pisces: yes,i agree that we don't need an extreme acurate ruler at long distances when plotting the first sighted target ,although will do no harm to had an acurate ruler.i just can't understand why devs continues to 'keep' this stock buggy ruler.at sh5 is even worst....

@Fader_Berg : the ''16,85'' was only an example to tell you that you can do it on paper even with that level of acuracy if you want . of course and i agree with you,we don't need that level of acuracy for the game...no need of demicals at all . but i would like a ruler to be able to draw a line which is representing a 1470m distance and Maloy's ruler can do that

@Archer9: this ruler is not a tool made by me.the original author is Maloy ...i only added the external bearing degrees at it . at long distances ,first you calculate the relative to north bearing and then you grap the ruler.i don't say that this is the ruler i wanted to have but given the current status...this ruler,afaik, is the only way to mark your target on map with accuracy(i thought that was your request at op) . of course this ruler is a compromise and i know that you have to get used to it .
the main use of this ruler is to use it when you want to mark your target with acuracy at short distances based on your measurments through peri.of course, the BEST would be,imo, to have a MARK button at peri page...see here : Manual Plot

but devs 'seems' that are not 'listening' to our small community so...compromises will always exist

I made an example too. All in-data you can get in this game, got a precision way out of what you want to achieve. It's not a question of what you need, but what you can get. There is no need to bother about nanometers when the closest I can get is within a tenth of a millimeter.
