Problem with FOTRS - TDC not working

First shot went deep and angled off somewhere. 2nd shot went deep and angled right, which I saw on the attack map... 3rd shot was a circle runner, and since the other two went deep, I did not dive my boat, but rather did Ahead Flank to avoid it, but I did not watch it close on the attack map... I did not, and got sunk by my own torpedo. Then I discovered that the "recorder" wasn't, and I have no video... I'll try again tomorrow, time permitting...

In the meantime, try this THEBERBSTER posting: Manual Targeting In SH4 or for an old video

I discovered from your help, that I did not have manual targetting enabled which is what i usually have. I also discovered from your awesome video that I didn't understand how to use the left dials to work out AoB.

Also, I noticed that the fire key has changed, to Control Enter which is fine, but the Red Fire button doesn't work anymore. The only way I could fire was to use Ctrl-Enter.

Thank you. That was a really helpful vid. It's all working properly now.

Much appreicated.
