Some tips needed for manual targeting

Are you using the shift and ctrl and up/down arrow keys to adjust the stadiometer ? If not then play with them and you should find getting the mast height a little eaiser.

Also, if you've accurately determined the ships bearing and speed then you should easily be able to get in a position which puts you in front and at 90 degrees (perpendicular) to the ship (ideally at a range of 600M from the ships bearing path). If you then manually set the AOB to 90 degrees and fire between 340 degrees to 020 degrees then you should be fine.

At the end of the day, practice makes perfect. I tried using "map updates on" last night but it was awfull as it took all the fun away of doing the calcs myself.

Cheers,
