TDC, PK, manual targeting, corrections.

Yeah, from what I've seen and heard on the subs I visited, the TDC came with a tracking plot which was used for targeting solutions. I think in SH logic, it's not so much the TDC itself as the in-game attack map that replaces it, probably for gameplay reasons since it's a lot more intuitive than a linear plot, especially if you're playing with map contacts.

Interestingly, one of the subs I've been on where I was told about the paper plot was the USS Pampanito, and IIRC that was the sub that the SH4 devs visited when building the game, so I thought that the TDC was modeled on the one on Pampanito, except for the plot.
