You can try the RAOBF see here http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...72&postcount=1

or just the plain old observ attack:-

Lock on IDed target (mast-height to tdc)
Use stadi to input range
Use guessing () to enter aob
use u jag to get speed
redo range with stadi
point scope at target and
Oh,boy!
The RAOBF looks really complicated. I think I need to play the tutorial for that thing several 100 times to get all that

Yes... take a bit of learning that one

The other method I posted is easy and fast

When you use the rec manual - the is a line called "Additional Information" - if it is written in black ink, you can click on it for some historic facts on that ship

Good suggestion

I have one more: rather than entering numerical TDC data into the XO dialog, you can set AoB, target range and target speed directly using the TDC knobs on the right of the scope view

Better yet, you can activate voice command and tell your Weps what to put into the TVR. That's how R/L Kaleuns did it. I doubt you will find a first-person account of a real U-boat commander turning the knobs on the TVR. Voice command in SH5 is well-integrated, easy to use, and reliable. Data entry is accurate and you don't have to jump the mouse from periscope control to the TVR knobs. Or take your eyes off the scope view. You can keep tracking that escort while Weps sets up the TVR.

I'm sure we can assume that as we turn those knobs - it is a representation of the chain of command and at the end point - the knob is turned

Is this another mod? I`ve seen Stoianm use it.
Seems like allot of fun, though. Maybe I use that for season two
