No you don't. I have manual targeting disabled in options. This is coming from an experience arcady targeting pro

I never wrote that someone on here did I can't remeber who but before I found out about it I was just like Faamecanic missing ships, then I tried the above method and never looked back. Arcady targeting FTW!

LOL....thanks Kiwi...

The other probelm I had was no numbers... didnt know it was a setting in TDW UIs that I had to turn on.

Its all good now... sank 32,000 tons on my first patrol

Had to return to port early (with 48% hull and 4 wounded officers) due to surfacing in the middle of a convoy, and I guess with OHII mod some merchant ships are ARMED in 1939

Needless to say I will be much more cautious in the future about surfacing.

by default they are disabled. You can click on the map options button on each map (TAI and nav map) to enable/disable options. To make the changes permanent you'll need to edit the options file.

I can't even remember everything I've put into the mod

. I've been coding and testing the GUI for the options file and I look at some of the options and say to myself, "hmmm..I don't remember that"

Sorry to go completely off topic, but I've had similar experiences with my music. Sometimes I'll listen to an older recording and say "Was that me? Did I play that?" Sometimes it's actually pretty good.

I dont know about TDW, but I think you and I are close in age Sailor Steve... as my grandad used to blame it on CRS (Cant Remember S***), so will I
