[WIP] Trevally Tutorials (for TDWs UI)

col_Kurtz · 12-15-10, 05:04 PM

To both of You Mates...

I did that step by step. And last thing to do was follow the target. I`m waiting yes on TC... than when it`s closing to 0 in my scope (355 degrees) stop the TC and watch... no 0, 0 in the gyro... and pass 0 in the scope scale as on my pic.
I expected triple 0, scope scale and both gyro...
I will try one more time (or more

).
Because I like this

Thank you

Zero on Gyroangle = Fire

Ok... I got it. I found what was not... perfect

The speed of the torpedo. When is very slow for long distance shot - you can`t see 0 on the gyro. When I changed the speed to max... I saw the 0, 0 on the both gyro clocks

So the speed is very important.

No, speed of torps does not matter.
The TDC knows how fast a torp will travel.
With fast the LEAD angle (shown on gyroscope) is smaller. (fire less in front of target)
With slow torps the LEAD is larger. (fire more in front of target)
If you switch the torp speed from slow to fast - you can see the LEAD angle adjust on the gyroangle.

Fire @ zero gyroangle

One of the mistakes I did was setting the torp speed to full for tube 1, but not the others in the salvo i.e. leaving 3 & 4 on normal/slow. You need to set them all to the same speed (or leave them all on default) which makes sense when you think of the TDC as a firing solution calculator.

I think what is useful about the tutorial is that you can learn other things from your mistakes.

I broke her on two parts with nice jump up

No chance for screeny - pity

Mission completed

It was spectacular. I set the torp to 6 meters deep. The first hit in the kil, the second in the rudder last one again in the kil and brake the ship on half. Amazing. At first time in this game I saw this great shot. No chance for escape... horrible

BigBANGTheory... in the scope scale it was about 345 degrees... (Trevally shows this on the picture!!! - I`m blind

kid in the fog) You right I missed this!

Thank you mates for your patience and help

Added new tutorial - Range AOB Practice.
This tutorial requires TDW UI v5.9

The tutorial will take you through finding range by using the stadimeter and AOB by eye.
This is a good next step if you started using manual TDC with the fast90 tutorial.

See post 1 for download.
