(you can notice this yourself by watching the gyroangle display; as it goes from 355-005 degrees, the triangle will be green, for example. I can't remember what the other values are.)

Yes,it indicates the "amount of moving" to be done by the torpedo.For example,if you are parallel with a ship,you can have a very good AoB ,but the triangle will orange.


@enemy ---> __

you---> __ - - - /

Hope you understand the drawingThe continous lines are the 2 ships-you and your target and the dotted line is the ideal torpedo trajectory.The position is really good if you are not seen,as the torpedo will have a lot of chances to hit.And if you look at the triangel in that position,it will be orange.You can however use it as a bit of guidance.You have to take into consideration the position of you ship and your target's position.For example,if you are in the position I drew,and you look at the enemy,you want the triangle to be orange or yellow .If you see it green,you know something is probably wrong.And if you are attacking at a 90 degree angle , you want the triangle to be green.If it's red,then something might be wrong with your calculations.

Right. If it's a fairly straight shot, and the triangle is red, check to make sure you don't have the rear torpedo tube selected by mistake, for example.

and I thought it was an sort of AoB indicator.... well I just watched it in-game. and yes as it turns green my Gyro angle is 000

@Goat : No Problem...Happy Hunting

The files are also on Filefront where I got them from.Go to the SH3 mods forum to the NYGM thread and you should find some more links there.

... Well, I 'downloaded' a file called 'NYGM_Tonnage_War_v2.0.7z'.... I think !
It took a long. long time. Must have been everybody in the world on d/l. Ended at 27 kb/sec... But, I don't think the file is good; I can't virus scan it...

Anyway WAS IT THE CORRECT FILE, in the first place ??
