Again, it really sucks I have NO FREAKING IDEA about this stuff and I'm a stupid simulation nut.

As for that compass tool that gives me the bearing, I'm extremely confused on how it works right, every video I see on youtube, they never explain it more than just .. Draw a line into the target ship, then down to the middle of your sub.

Great! It gives me weird numbers, and it can be off by a large degree if I do it 3x in a row.

Do I have to multiply that number or something? Or divide it?

So confused

also what does PK mean?
A perfect AOB is the targets course relative to your sub. You can mark the ships course and use the compass or if you have good stad measurements, when you ask for speed, you get course as well. Simply spin the AOB wheel to the course. Course in real life, they did the math or simply guessed.
