You expect to hit your target? Where's the fun in that?

Go on tick "manual targeting", you'll be glad you did.

The game totally changes when you choose manual targeting (holy COW I love the Go Keyboard on this tablet.). Please visit my Sub Skipper's Bag of Tricks Thread to learn the Dick O'Kane manual targeting technique. You can set up your TDC. a half hour before you shoot! And from then on all you're concerned about is positioning your boat and pushing the fire button(s).

It takes no math you can't handle in your head in five seconds, takes no extraordinary skills and you'll be putting targets on the bottom in half an hour. It truly is as easy as automatic targeting.
