AoB, range, speed off a little or a lot either way rather than dead-on accurate like it is now.

I'm not at the point yet where I am comfortable doing it myself so I use the WO as a crutch at the moment. Don't know if I'll ever be good at doing it myself.

I'm sure that can't be modded unless they release the SDK.

I could see it affecting the time that it takes to plot a solution, but not the accuracy. It's just math, and it's not overly complicated, so I have a hard time believing someone who's gone thru officer training would muff it up. I could see an experienced officer taking less time than a noobie officer though.
