Mostly stick to real time when stalking, and attacking. At least until I am able to get a good idea of the DD patterns on the side I am approaching from to set up a firing solution. Once i have their patterns estimated, I will go to 4 or 8 TC just because I'm impatient, and i like seeing them Japanese boats go up in a big ball of flame, and settle nicely in the waves, and know that I made a bunch of the Sons of Nippon happy as they go to see their anscestors.

Single merchants might be cause for a little TCing (32 or 64X) with me but, larger convoys and warship TFs require real time attention.

I do very little TC'ing after contact, unless it is an end around situation. I do pause time a lot to plot and calculate, though.

I'm usually using TC in all stages except attack, then may use it a little.
I'm not starring at a PC screen for hours when nothing is happening when it has no effect on the outcome.

I play with cams off and just pulling off attacks and evading can take hours, that's enough for me.

Me too!

I'm amazed that some people manage to get all these spectacular screen shots of their actions. I find, I am very busy when things are exploding.

0.0 is much lower. 'Back Space' pauses the game.
