Realism?

[Mau]

Ok Great Thanks!

But what do you mean by the help of my First Officer? When I am in a realism fairly low and that all the computation for firing are at the basic level, does that mean that I can actually try to fire any time with the TDC and change the parameters and the system will let me do it?

Before you load the game there is a bunch of checkboxes for realism. I'm sure you know this but look for the one that say Help from TDC Officer ( something like that ).

Even if you have his help you can still go to the TDC and enter stuff manualy. You may still get too much info from him though. To learn about all this see Wazoo's Tutorial.

It's Weapons Officer Help, and he is one of the only two things I leave turned on these days. The other is External View; it's just too much fun to watch all those ships and planes from different perspectives.

But they're right: start off easy and build up until you reach a level you like.
