The automatic speed/course can be wrong if you get a bad stadimeter range.

I'm starting to think it may be a combination of speed and range (bad stadiomter readings). Cuz I do use the nav map as i have map contacts turned on, and sometimes cheat on the speed using the contacts marks and time between marks, i never really double check the range with the navmap. When i use the navmap and cheat on the speed, i still end up shooting behind. I was starting to think the ships suddenly speed up, which is possible, but not all the time.

Just getting frustrated watching my torps go behind every single time. I've played SH3 with OLC GUI and never had this many consistent bad shots.

Currently using RFB and RSRD.

thx for letting me vent.
