The four bearings method

You didn't specify what you were trying, but based on the bearings hint, I assume you mean getting the enemy speed.

Did you search the subsim forums? There is already a lot of information on this and other aspects of manual tracking and targeting.

Enemy speed, course and position is what you can find with four bearings.

Yes I've tried these forums for info. If you read my document, you will find that some of what it says contradicts what others have said before about this matter. I'm a mathematician and I had to check, you know.

FANTASTIC solution Kuikueg !

you solved a very difficult geometrical problem with a very 'classed' solution !

The 'beauty' of Euclid Geometry is always ,by far, much levels beyond other math's techniques.

Congratulations sir !

Excellent read Kuikueg. Once I get my Mod up and running I should have some time to try this out.

Works here now. Filefront has issues from time to time, just try to download again in 10 min or so.

All you high school students take note: it pays to be attentive in high school geometry class.
