RAOBF

[Trevally.]

This is the emtguf scope attack using the ship from Makmans mission.

Map measured range is 1000m
Mast is 47.82
Length is 239.418m

Pic1 - range/mast height


Pic2 - AOB/Ship Length


As you can see from both pics
Range/mastheight is correct.
AOB/Ship Length is out by 10m

So horizontals need a tweek - this will now be easier with this known ship.

Hello,

not sure to understand what you do in 2nd pic... why do you show 14 in green? What is it?

I think you have to align length of ship (outer white cross) with distance on middle out=10 (in red); then you read in front of the horizontal width in ticks (22-23 on middle in) the AOB on the inner, here I read 13°... I don't think this is the correct AOB, is it?
I think you should multiply 23*4 (if in 1.5x)=92 and then read around 70° for AOB in this pic if you align red and white cross...

Yes you are correct - the green mark should be on the middle inside ring showing horizontal clicks @ 23.
I did it this way to compare the length of the ship as per the scope marks v the known length from Makman.

Sorry for the confusion.

Trevally, using your AoB tutorial. The first Ranger Tanker it makes you look at.

I just updated to TDW's 6.0.3

Range: 700m
Length: 112m
Ticks: 13

Try those numbers. What AoB do you get? Because I get a very small AoB, when it should in fact be about 80deg. If I multiply by 4 (only because I saw you do it in one of your screenshots, I don't know why I would multiply) I get 52 ticks... but there are not 52 ticks on the ROABF.......

If the target is too big to fit in the RAOBF at x6 zoom we use x1.5 zoom.
6 / 1.5 = 4
So if clicks are counted in 1.5 zoom you must X by 4.
Or you can set your clicks to the bottom right black marker (note: if you put 10click at bottom right marker - the top black marker shows this number X 4)

If your click go over 50 (no 50 on wheel) the numgers continue.
so 0.5 becomes 50
next mark up is 55
next mark up is 60 and so on.

Once I get the horizontals sorted - I will post a new step by step guide

@toniloCoyote

With the info Makman has givrn us and the confirming the that your list of lengths are the correct ones - I am going to re-scale the horizontals to match this new info.

So mastheights looks like this info is going to be required.
Mastheight + draft. If you can find a way to test this you can really fix everyone RM. This would be a big step forward for the game and a huge benefit to eveyone

Sorry, I've been far away from my computer for one full day (family duties). In less of half hour I'll end in attending them and will be on-line again. In the meanwhile, thanks to you all for still in fight.
