I have made a mod "TDC help" - it is tutorial script based but can be used at any time.

You know, just out of curiosity I'm going to try that one. Like I said, I like to do them myself, but I just wanted to check out how good my crew or Waffenoffizier was. Thanks

Also, it would make sense from a realism point of view to be able to delegate a bit every now and again. Those weren't one-man U-boats, after all

If you want something done right... And all that.

It certainly should, as all the ships travel at the same speed and on the same course. The only thing you need the correct type for is for the Stadimeter/RAOBF and for setting the torpedo depth.

Oh, and I know the "butterflies in the stomach" bit very well. It's one of the reasons this sim never gets old for me. Having made the "perfect" firing solution, programmed the TDC, flooded and set the eel, picked up my attack position and just waiting, waiting for the time to order LOS!

...driving myself nuts every second of my wait wondering if there was one little thing I forgot or did wrong this time

And then the "YAY, they HIT!" feeling when my worries are proven, most of the time, unfounded.

It just never gets old.
